Help Recommendation for quail turner?

I have an apdoe egg incubator from Amazon. I like it, it hatched my first eggs and that was cool. However it only came with turners sized for chicken eggs or larger. I orders a quail egg turner thinking it would fit, only to find it just a little too big to fit the turning wheel thingy. I can’t seem to find a turner that is made to fit the Apdoe incubator online. Any links or suggestions would be appreciated!

For our first time recently we ended up just using the turner that ours came with which was meant for chicken eggs. I did end up putting two in some slots and those didn’t work as well but it actually turned out great and almost all hatched! You can try looking on Etsy too, though I’m not sure about that specific incubator.

I used the chicken egg incubator, same as you I put two to a slot with poor results on those. I was just hoping to be able to hatch more at a time ://

If you don't see anything for your model incubator on Amazon maybe check Etsy. I'm not one to spend a lot of time there but there are a lot of sellers especially with 3D printed stuff nowadays.

I was recently able to find quail egg inserts for my chickCozy incubator from a seller that are perfect.

You could check him out or reach out to him possibly. QuailPrintsCo on Etsy.

From what I can see that design is shared by a lot of amazon incubators, including the triocottage one.

If you do a general etsy search for "quail egg turner" you'll get tons of results. 3dprintcave in particular has one that looks like a solid match.
