bobwhite quail

I'm really after buying pairs of the snowflake bobwhite variation. I can't find people that have them or breeders anywhere. If anyone knows please let me know :) I'm close to Sydney but will consider any in NSW

I bought 2 bobwhite at the feed mill today, they were in a bin of mixed Mexican speckled and snowflake. I liked them because they are dark but I’m not sure what this color would be? I tried to research and the closest I found was Tennessee red but these are more blackish. They almost remind me...

So I have a baby quail that hatched yesterday, I noticed it was not walked like it should be while letting it dry but instead it was dragging itself with its wings. All my other quail are happy and normal but this little guy has one leg way longer than the other, only really uses the shorter...

Hello! On April 9th I'll be adopting 4 Quail, a pair of scaled quail, and a pair of bobwhites. The female bobwhite is a snowflake bobwhite, but I have no idea what coloration the male is... Here's a picture, the male is the dark one and the female is the snowflake one. Any ideas on what the...

I'm building a aviary for my quail (it's GIANT and I bought the lumber today:celebrate) once it's completed, I want to put plants in it to help my quail feel more natural (since they are Bobwhites) Does anyone know quail-safe plants? Thanks in advance :D

Hi! I know I can give quail mealworms, but can I also give them fruits? If yes what kinds? Thank you!

Hi quail lovers! I have owned quail for 4 months but they have already made a place in my heart. Here, feel free to share quail pictures, quail stories and every thing quail! All quail species are welcome!

Hi, I initially had a hard time figuring how to house my quail. So, I am writing this to help anyone who as questions about housing- you can have a small hutch or a giant pen! I will get back to you within 2 days! :)

Could anyone recommend a book about raising Bobwhite quail? I have 21 quail at 22 weeks old, 4 males. A couple of the hens are laying. I had to remove a female today that was part of a trio. Apparently she wasn't the favorite and her head was plucked bald. There is 1 male with 3 hens, no...

First, I ask forgiveness ahead of time as I am sure the answer to this question is in this huge forum somewhere!! I have 21 Bobwhite quail that are 21 weeks old. I am a novice to raising them but have managed to condition them so that they look and act healthy now. Had them 3 weeks, obtained...

So, at the beginning of May I should be receiving baby bobwhites. My question is can they be tamed down? I know they are some of the wilder breeds of quail. Also, how would I tame them? Do we just handle them frequently? I know all about coturnix, but we unfortunately couldn't order those. :idunno

Hey friends, just though I'd show you some pictures of my "chosen quail" because he is such a king. Gooseberry is a Georgia Giant Bobwhite quail (though I accidentally said Jumbo Wisconsin in my intro...whoops) and he is pretty dominant. Y'all can share your pictures if you'd like to.

Seen them rocking 2 days ago, Now nothing! Air cell is still there the rest is very dark! Should I be seeing movement? Is there anything I can do to see if they are alive! Losing hope :(

I seen the egg wobbling at day 19 or 20! Today is Day 23 and never saw movement since! A bit worried!! Is this normal?

So for those who read my two other posts about my pet quail, here is an update!! 1st, the bully male did not get recaptured and I've given up hope, however, this left just my Female and her Mate, and ALL calmed down, no more freaking!! 2nd, there was no centipede bite, THANK GOD!!! And 3rd, My...

I have 2 eggs that have been on 50% humidity in their brinsea incubator for the last 15 days and have been doing great, been hearing alot of people say different things about lock down! Should I boost it to 65 or higher the last 3 days? I have no idea this is my first time hatching

I have bobwhites hatching soon wondering what's best for flooring in the storage container as I see people use many different things like news paper, paper towels, and chicken wire but worried about there feet getting stuck or the chick getting hurt!?
