We are so egg-cited! The quail eggs were delivered today.  

We are learning all about quails.  Did you know that quails are oviparous animals?  That means that they hatch from an egg. In the wild, the female quail lays the eggs and the male bird sits on them to keep them warm. He also turns the eggs with his feet so that the babies inside do not stick to the shell. This is a picture of the incubator. The incubator does the job of the parent bird. It keeps the eggs warm and turns the eggs every hour. 

We made predictions! Ask me how long I think that it will take for the eggs to hatch.
