How many eggs do the coturnix quails lay normally in a nest before they want to hatch them? I have 1 nest with 32 eggs and still no male wants to sit on the eggs. Is there a trick to get the males to sit on the eggs?

If you have to many males in the cage I find they wont sit so buy yourself a cheap incubator and you will hatch heaps that way
