My Welsummer chick (Lady Catherine de Bird) is 2 weeks old and tonight I noticed that one of her toes on each foot is oddly spread out.
I’ve had quail chicks with splayed leg and curled toes before and this doesn’t look like either. The Lady Catherine does not appear to have any issues with...
My quail are kept outside in a large rabbit hutch with a wooden bottom. I use pine shavings for their bedding. If I am feeling lazy I go with a deep litter method every week and just throw fresh bedding in. It’s outside with good ventilation, so I don’t notice a strong odor.
Every three weeks...
