My Quails are hatching, well mainly hatched, 9 so far, 1 more hatching and 2 not doing anything, so good result I think for 12 eggs.
Sorry first hatch very excited.

Congrats!! I had a pair of quails once which laid eggs (well the female!) but the male killed the babies almost immediately! The second batch I managed to save just one and moved it and Mum away from the father. Perhaps worth keeping an eye on them?

oo - is this the natural way or using an incubator?

Incubator, only a little cheap one.
10 out of 12 hatched, one dead in shell (I cracked it last week, so my fault) and one infertile. So I'm impressed with that.
