| Quail hatching eggs |
Create a family - to 5 hens a rooster. Get hatching eggs and lay in an incubator home (up to 100 pieces). Twice a day manually flip the eggs on the 17th day of getting offspring. Hatchability 80%.
The first 5 days, the chicks are living under a lamp in a box with a layer of compacted hay 3-4cm. This solves the problem of so-called "helicopter" or "sliders" - chicks with weak legs in hand, crawling on the belly. 2-3 days in the manger everything "helicopters" straighten and stand on their feet.

So, you decide. Cell and 10 birds - the most important thing is your desire. By the way, with the birds feed on the first 2-3 months, I give.
First of all decide the location for the cell. Best of all - a dark corner of the room or the kitchen, where the sun does not hit and daylight enough to do without backlighting. We need to try to ensure the bird 16-17 hours of daylight. Place a cell may be on the table, on a shelf.

This quail Japanese, the basic form for the production of eggs. Meat is the "Pharaohs". And yet there are Manchu, English, marble and other decorative even.
I like it hot - good trot, fairly well-fed (excess males will still go to the meat). Yes and no wonder the Japanese have their 200 years of breeding. As a result of this breeding - females are concerned only with their egg production. Not weave nests, eggs hatch and not the South do not fly away. In general, try not to fly, but escaped accidentally from a cell, can flit in the room. Wild quail are found also in the Transbaikal, Primorye, Japan, Korea and China. I know that there are thousands of Abkhazia catch nets during the fall flight.
