    Feeding Organic rations to Quail...a "complete" diet is needed

    Resolution, Do you have a source of pre mixed feed that would meet this need. My website states I have fewer birds than I have now. I have expanded to 4 times at least in number in Quail hens. So a bulk feeding program is what I am going to be needing to speak to you about. Oh and thank you...

    Tatanka Breeders Club: Meat Quail project with history, discussion, pictures and videos

    Rocky Mountain Division reporting in: Selling the jumbo egg from the Tatanka line is all my customers expect now. If I slip in a small egg from the other lines, it just looks bad. These eggs as you can see FILL the carton space. NOW, I sell mine at $6. I will be bumping up the price for the...

    Pine pellets: The circle of life

    Have gone back and forth...But when the compost pile gets SO big...Pine pellets are the way to go for better composting, odor control..and just space...especially if you have small space to operate in. Right on Eyeheartquail! I'm sticking with them and good old fashioned FREE newspaper. Tonya

    I got quail, do you have quail?

    Haven't been here in a while....But because I see such good folks posting on my favorite thing...I dusted off the cobwebs and stepped back in. I have finally broken the 100 mark in hatched...Now...I know the percentages are "against me" in male to female and that number will come down a...

    Two dead and two with same problem

    Well it looks like JJ came to the rescue again. I hope this clears up the question for the other poster who was offended by my suggestions. You made it all better brother. Can you tell that this fine man saves lives for a living? He knows when to step in and give people what they need. Thank...

    Two dead and two with same problem

    Well, I apologize most certainly for not knowing that you had accidentally posted twice. I took it more as a serious "some one answer me, as I don't understand why this continues to happen"...And so I offered what I could with what limited experience I have too. I had to do just what I told you...

    Two dead and two with same problem

    Well the jury is out on "harmful to the Quail". Google Coccidostats. One of the millers in my area will only sell the medicated as he is concerned that newbies will expose their quail to dirt, or let wild birds have accidental "access" to feed and water (bird flies into or over pen and poops in...

    Thank You for this information. I have heard and read from other keepers that they did not lay as well as any other in the pen.

    Ulcerative enteritis?

    Something else I would like you to consider is pecking order in the pen. I have had females go down on me that I had NO idea were being bullied when I was not present feeding. When I feed, everyone is happy to see me and at the feeder. When I was gone, a few of my girls were getting the serious...

    Two dead and two with same problem

    Even I have to use medicated GBS and I am the lady that feeds organic to the point of GMO free organic....Medicated GBS for the first 4 to 6 weeks of life is unavoidable in some regions (in a gamebird ration). I have also tried turkey starter unmedicated and had good results...Please, people...

    A Sample Plan to submit for selling eggs to a natural food store

    It's gonna depend on your feed bill PatS...but I priced mine the average Nation wide. I looked at all the big outfits that could be our competition and they are charging $6.00 per dozen and then they charge a shipping charge...So $6.00 here local is good, right? Now...this whole GMO free feed...

    A Sample Plan to submit for selling eggs to a natural food store

    Hey guys! Haven't been around in a while and I thought I'd check in on the subject. So selling at the Farmers market is completely safe and legal in Colorado. Don't you worry. This is per local, AND State Health Dept. In a LOT of states Coturnix Japanese or the Common European Coturnix (all...

    Ok, so options were.... feeding question update from other post

    Quote: Probably because you live in the "pheasant belt" and PHEASANTS are the only GAME BIRDS that exist within this belt, and the only thing they need is 19% protein game bird pellets to see them through the winter. Until spring, when the only game birds that exist needs higher protein...

    Feeding Coturnix Ground Beef?

    Quote: Awesome X2. Especially if your feed is one that is heavy in all kinds of plant based proteins. This is where you probably read it...I had a problem with organic turkey starter being loaded with soy, corn and all these plant based proteins...Didn't cut it. They started eating eachothers...

    QuailShaQ 101.1

    Quote: The same would happen here. But I would put mine on one of Model A's quail egg sandwiches with some either Lawry's or fajita season salt. Probably the most healthy sandwich you could eat. I miss them soooo much. Not an egg to spare around here...All are already spoken for for grocer...

    Just locked down 71 cot eggs

    I have had good hatches from Florida to Colorado as long as it was cold. Now in the heat last year? Whew....those babies were half started and then stopped and then started again as they traveled thru hot and then landed to room temp in our home and then went into the incubator. That period of...
