All right! Good luck with the eggs! May they all turn into healthy birdies, so you may eat good meat. 24 days isn't that long. But I guess they'll need to grow up after hatching. How long do quails take to mature?

With this breed, Bobwhite, unfortunately it's about 20 weeks. A long time for quail. For Coturbix it's only 8 weeks!
All righty, sounds like you'll have your first quail meat next year. :-) New Year's quail?
By then they should also be grown up sufficiently to handle the cold. Are they okay in the cold? I can imagine Central Oregon getting a bit colder than Virginia.
They're one of the more hardier breeds and the breeder I got them from lives further south than me in a colder zone. :)
I also plan to get the Corunix Quail after these hatch. Gotta make sure the incubator works proper first! Haha
