I heard that keeping them with chicks will make them somewhat less wild and loud. My chicks are too old to be kept with these...

    Worms in Coop

    We raise bobwhites. We've had several rainy days. My daughter came in from collecting eggs and said they were covered in tiny worms. She showed me that the floor is covered in these tiny, almost microscopic worms. They could have been there forever and I've never noticed them. Are they a threat...

    Quail chick foot is swollen

    Hello, my quail chick has a swollen foot, it doesn’t seem to be bumblefoot because it is swelling on the top of the foot rather the bottom. Could it possibly be a form of gout? This is my first time hatching and raising quail. I also have a chick with wry neck and I purchased the 80ml vitamin E...

Therefore, I was wondering if anybody had done this in the past and how much you charged, are there any risks other than the eggs failing? Do you...

    Quail broody's

    Hello, I have found various threads but none with the answer I am looking for. I was wondering if it is possible to hatch out quail eggs under quails themselves?

    Galvanized Hanging Poultry Waterer

    I have used these handy Little Giant waterers in my quail cages for several years. They save floor space, and prevent spills and pooping in the water. They work great for water for quail, and would probably be useful as additional waterers for chickens or chicks when you want to be sure nobody...
