Yes, they will, but not often. I have raised both Bobwhite and Coturnix Quail for years and never have the Coturnix sat and hatched their own eggs. However, I have had bobwhite hatch their own. This year I had a hen sit on 17 eggs and hatched 14. I found it very interested to see the morning after that the male helped her sit and keep the young warm, just siting side by side in the same nest.

Can a cortunix quail take care of Georgia giant bobwhite chicks?
It is possible, but coturnix do not tend to go broody. If you are giving the hen the chicks, after they hatched, she will most likely not raise them. She may even attack them and kill then, as they can look like a threat. If a coturnix hen is broody, the eggs she is sitting on can be removed, and the chickens placed under her. She will then raise the babies as her own.
