Guest Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 can anyone recommend a reasonably priced incubator for rearing our own quail eggs and which breed are better for the table? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 Ooh, thinking if getting quail? ( Silly question really ) Japs are the best for meat (and eggs too) as they're bigger than CPQ. The incubator is what suits you and cost really, do you want automatic/manual? How many were you thinking of getting? How much did you want to spend? I built my own when I hatched mine (there are 100's of photos and a load about it on my blog) and it cost about £50. R-com are good as they have a quail tray, there are also the Brinsea Mini Eco for £55 and the automatic version, Brinsea Mini Advance for £90 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I'll be at home most of the time so a manual one probably, did you see the link I put on the facebook thread? That one is £30 and Jade rates it so I think we might go for thart one unless you can think of any reason not to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted November 21, 2009 Share Posted November 21, 2009 I've not had a polystyrene one but Raina and moochoo have one and I think Tasha used to have one aswell, so they might be the people to ask Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
