Sad and Good Day

Today is a sad day for my family. Our lovely Goffin Cockatoo that have had for 24-25 years, Passed away. She will be missed. Another is a quail died as well. Both will be missed so much.

Great news, Two of my 6 week old quail have been laying eggs. They don't until 8 weeks. Which is really nice to see some laying. I ate the first one. Than found out about the second. So we will be collecting them to incubate them. Which will tell me if the eggs now are fertile. What my Hatch rate will be. I will be collecting till 12 eggs, at that point, they will be going in the incubator. Which will incubate for 17 days. I will add more within time. With this dozen will be either sold, or raised for meat. I will be Building my Quail Run (thing) this upcoming week. Which will hold all 10 quail, or 6 quail. Please read about the quail post, I will probably be making something different than the pen in the post.

I would like to thank you for the time you put out to read this entry and the others. Hope you can come back to read future ones ahead.
Thanks,
Noah
