    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

I am looking to buy up as many infertile finch eggs I can get. I will buy 50 lots! 100 lots! If they are fertile they must be fresh. These will be food for eastern Egg Eating snakes!

Please contact me at [email protected]

Thanks!
 
Gary,

I wish you all the luck in the world, but this has got to be one of the oddest and more difficult tasks to accomplish! It might be easier to contact button quail breeders, the size of the egg is a "tad" larger but you might have better luck at finding them.

Here's an idea for consideration. Why don't you go to any veterinary clinic and purchase empty gelatin (they are 100% protein) capsules about the size you need. They are very inexpensive. You boil chicken eggs, make mash them and fill the casules (if you do it with the raw egg the gelatin will start to melt). Then you can paint them with raw egg and powder them with calcium carbonate (egg shell), and scent them with dead birds. It seems more complicated than it actually is and you will always have "eggs" at your fingertips. You can increase the size of the gelatin capsules as they grow until they take regular quail eggs. I've used gelatin capsules to force feed ball pythons at times in the past and it worked perfectly.

Good luck
 
Not a bad idea!!!! Thanks a bunch. Yeah I have found it hard as can be to find finch eggs. Well. I found a person but they will not sell them to me for what I need lol.
