At what temp and for how long can you hold Jap Quail eggs before setting in incubator?

Well i had mine in the fridge for two to three weeks and still got a 50% hatch and i had them on the cages for over a week under roof and got a 50 to 60% hatch  Those are pretty hardy eggs .. My fridge is 63 degrees  and the outside was a avg 70 degrees.  I would say in the fridge the mid 60`s  no more than a week  would be the best for fertile and embro..
I even hatched out eggs that were in the fridge for a month and a half not being turned but only 20 %  hatched
