I do not use the small incubators . For best results in releasing quail I would recomend releasing at least 25 birds at a time at 6 weeks of age . Incubate arond 40 or so eggs at a time to insure you get at least 25-30 to hatch Good luck If that starter kit can hold 50 or so eggs it should be ok

I do not have any personnal experience with this kit, although it appears to have everything you would need, I don't think that you can find any better quality equipment out there unless you were to go with a cabinet type incubator ($$$) as jchiar had mentioned. Also as jchiar mentioned, I too would spend a couple more bucks and order more eggs.
