    California Valley Quail - NY

    I have 1 bonded pair of California Valley Quail for sale. $20/pair. They are 1 year old and are real beauties. I will not ship as I believe shipping is far too stressful on these birds. I am located 30 miles north of Albany.

    Penedesenca/Marans Breeder in Old Town, Florida?

    Quail Feeders

    What is the best type of feeder to use to reduce feed waste? I use a chick feeder (galvanized trough with reel) and a J feeder (for rabbits) and my birds waste more feed than they eat. Most of the crumbles fall through the wire.
