Celadons You may hatch a variety of colors such as Rosetta Tuxedo, Tibetan Tuxedo, Dotted Whites, Range Tuxedo, Silver Tuxedo, Pharoah Tuxedo, and White Splashes. The average weight at maturity is between 8.5 -12 ounces. These are standard sized quail but could reach jumbo sizing (10+ ounces). Eggs will average around 10-16 grams.

We have worked on this line for quite some time and are 99% hatching true. The offspring will not show any other mutations but may carry recessive traits. This means you could hatch an occasional Italian/Manchurian, Pansy Fee or Falb Fee. Shipping We ship the eggs in custom foams via USPS Priority Mail within 24-36 hours of the eggs being laid. We keep our hatching eggs in a 55-60 degree temperature-controlled fridge pointy end down.

However, please don't hesitate to reach out to us if you have any questions or issues. We monitor the tracking #'s for every order and will reach out if we see an abnormal delay in transit (5+ days).Hatching eggs are checked every week by our breeders to ensure 95%+ fertility.Breeders are rotated out every 8-10 months.Every egg is candled before packing to ensure no peck holes or cracks. (tedious but worth it!)Fragile and hatching egg stickers are placed on the shipping boxIf you have ordered a mix set with Celadons included, please note that you will receive blue and standard-colored eggs. The female offspring from the Celadon blue eggs will lay true blue, and the rest of the lines in the order will lay standard beige-speckled colors. We take great pride in providing top-notch customer service and know how important and exciting your hatching egg adventure is to you. Incubation Recommendations -Turn on the incubator and allow the temperature to stabilize to 99.5* F and between 35-45% humidity. -Inspect your shipped eggs for cracks/damage. Do not put those in the incubator. -Rest your shipped eggs for 12-24 hours pointy side down at room temperature before incubating. -Set your eggs in the incubator, turning at least 4x per day -Incubate for 14 days and check temperature and humidity often -Move eggs into lockdown after 14 days. Remove egg turners and place eggs on hatching trays, preferably on a rough surface, so the chicks will not slip on plastics/foams. -Increase humidity to 65% -Around day 16-18, chicks will start hatching. Waiting 24-36 hours before removing chicks to avoid shrink-wrapping the remaining eggs. Brooding Recommendations -Prepare the brooder a day or so before the chick hatch. -The temperature should be 85* F in the coldest part and ~105* F in the hottest section. -Put room temp or warmer water and food near the heat source so the chicks can easily access them -Feed should be 28-30% starter crumble for the first six weeks -The temperature in the brooder can be lowered by 5*F per week -After seven weeks, the feed can be switched to 16-22% layer protein
