Willow Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 And ordered an incubator today - Dilly's 'bumble bee' photos were just too hard to resist So I'll be reading every bit of advice I can find on here and CC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 23, 2008 Share Posted March 23, 2008 Oh my gosh - I can't have that on my conscience They are bigger than bumble bees when they hatch - well the Japanese species are - they weigh around 6g-7g each. Mind you, I haven't managed to get a bumble to sit still long enough to weigh it. More news of mine tomorrow - I have re-homed them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willow Posted March 24, 2008 Author Share Posted March 24, 2008 Hi Dilly Don't worry I know they are bigger than bumble bees Intrigued by you re-housing yours and want all the details of why and where. I'd likeed the look of the little house you used especially when I'd realised it would fit into the shed over winter if it's cold so was plannng to go for the same. I haven't ordered housing yet as I won't need it for a few weeks (although I'd best check delivery timescales) Patricia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 You just have to see Phil - Claret's partner on my site - he must have been a Quail Whisperer in a past life! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Must've been a female quail - he always manages to have girls eating out of his hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Ahem - I trust just you and Rosie The thing is, he's always got women chatting to him - I guess it's because he likes women (well most of them) and finds them interesting - not always hitting on them ....anyhow.. back to quail!
