Hatchlings are typically large enough to manage finch eggs but hope the red hatchlings are large enough to take button quail eggs when they hatch. I get the eggs online from folks on egg selling webpages for like 20 eggs for 12 dollars shipped and they only need an egg every week or two. Otherwise I simply use a metal tube with a syringe and tube them egg weekly for a couple of months and they grow quick and can manage a quail egg.
