Hi All,
David from australia has emailed about his 8 week old button quail.
'blockquote'Hi my 3 button quails are about 8 weeks old and have only laid 1 egg in the time I have had them ( 2 weeks) this egg was fertile, but I was just wondering if there's something wrong, we live in Australia so we don't have temperature or light issues, it is quiet hot though.'blockquote'
I found that from about 6 weeks old my japanese and Italian quail would begin to lay but not everyday to begin with. Of the three how many are female. Yours are still quite young so they should start to come into full lay soon.
I hope they sort themselves out. Kind regards
