grif65 Posted August 24, 2010 Share Posted August 24, 2010 I have a pair of Japanese quail who started to make a nest in the covered part of the aviary, the hen then laid 8 eggs, and incubated them! All 8 hatched on the same day! They are now just over a week old, and growing well under her care. However she has now laid another egg ! What do I do? Do I move the chicks incase they damage the eggs? 8 chicks and a possible further 8 eggs are going to be a tight squeeze for my little hen! Any advise out there!!??!!
