I thought so. 3 hasn't laid an egg or crowed at 13 weeks old. My other males don't try to mate it either. I know the other two have a but to go. One is making sounds but not a definitive male sound.
Anyone able to tell me what color or sex my button quail are? #1 and #2 are 6 weeks old. #3 I'm pretty sure is male as he's 13 weeks with that little reddish on his tail and no eggs. Doesn't crow though, but I have two other confirmed males.
I looked it up but still confused as it doesn't mention the colors I'm referring to. I know are one of them as someone in Australia who breeds them confirmed its one of the two. I'm just not sure how to figure it out with test breeding if that makes sense. It's my only Oz Snowy that didn't...
Oz Snowy English White or Oz Snowy het Dotted White het Splash is the colors I was told but I'm learning. I'm trying to figure out how to figure out coloring and how to test breed the colors to find.
It's from the Oz Snowy line. I forgot to add that in. I don't know how to test breed but the breeder I got the eggs from said those were my options in the color of my quail. It's one of those two.
Update: I've stopped treating her to see what would happen as we couldn't get her to hold still go try to drain it without squeezing her too hard. She's feisty. Ignore all the dirt, she was out playing in it right before I took the picture and gave me attitude about taking her picture so it...
She actually doesn't seem to be in distress or pain anymore. She kicking around, eating, trying to jump out of box, etc. No more pushing. I'm sure she's just acting like everything is fine. If I wasn't paying attention to her standing oddly, I wouldn't even notice she was eggbound with how...
Oh, I get it. I'm just stating I'm surprised she hasn't done it herself. He is an exotic vet so he does know things and the only one around us. I was going to give her one more good soak but my kids have to be quiet first (which hasn't happened all day) so she doesn't get scared.
We had a tornado come through here and we gave a lot of our money to victims which we told our vet that's what we did so this next couple weeks were tight. Figured we could do without more than they could. The vet only said I was doing everything I could do. Nothing else was said. I'm actually...
@Nabiki @Wyorp Rock I think the egg is too big for her to pass. She can still poop because it's too big for it to get to her pelvic bones. How do I get help her? Any thoughts?
