    They are really tasty, heathy meat and eggs. That’s good hatch rate.

    Holy smokes you are wonderfully seriously into it! Brian our neighbor did the same with pheasants. It's a gas! Good on you.

    Looks like you have a great setup for them, I use to raise alot of show chickens for 4-h Kids and loved the process of hatching them out myself instead of buying chicks. I did learn depending on different incubators temp, would determine chicks hatching out early or late, usally a high temp was an early hatch and a low temp was a day late. Great video.

    • @CastleHives

      The incubators I have do fluctuate some, so that's most likely why they start a hair early. They're such a fast growing bird. Thanks for watching Brad.

      We were a toss up between the two, Chickens or Quail. Landed on Quail just because of the space needed to keep them.

    Good video! In 2020. I bought two hives and a few quails and now I have only honeybees because I keep 200 miles away. This year was similar to yours. I’m smaller than you only 6-8 hives and I had only 40% 🍯 from what I was expecting.

    I thought this was a beekeeping channel? 😂 That's what everyone tells me. 😊
    Didn't realize they only had a 18 day incubation. Wow, that is fast!! Is pastie butt a concern with them? I know with chickens their butt can get plugged off with dried poo.
    You got a sweet setup for your birds, very cool.

    • @CastleHives
      @CastleHives  6 місяців тому +1

      I've never had one with pastie butt. . The only issue is that they get very territorial and will beat the tar out of each other. Appreciate you watching Jason. Figured I'd change it up for a video or two.

    What kind of incubator do you have. What is your hatch ratio?

    • @CastleHives

      It is Maticoopx from Amazon. I think the last batch I did, I got 38 or 39 out of 48.

    So are they dark meat, or white meat like chickens?

    • @CastleHives
      @CastleHives  6 місяців тому

      They're a lighter meat. Some say the filet of the sky.
