Hello,
This is my first time hatching out a lot of quail. I had one that fell into its water.
The dish the water is in is a very low dish so they don’t drown.
But one fell into it and got wet. It was placed in an incubator to warm up again and it seemed to be doing fine until I saw its...
We just got some quail from an elderly person who knew nothing about caring for them. They were in a wire cage about 4’ off the ground and were just fed and watered. They have some issues as the pictures show. Can anyone help me with what I need to do to help them? Mites?? Infected eyes?? They...
Hello, I have a female hen (about a year old) who I'm pretty sure has some type of internal parasites/worms and was hoping I could get some insight on others experience with using treatments like VetRx or Verm-x (or other recommendations you may have).
About a month ago I noticed that she was...
Hi,
I have a quail hen & she’s been having hard time since winter started, first she refused to eat & drink at all , but treating with antibiotics came back to normal.
Lately she’s been smelling so bad & today it kind of exploded, she was stuck in black material coming out of her body.
It was...
Okay. So my quail has a huge swell on her joint. And it’s not going away. It has doubled in size over the weeks I don’t have an avian vet near me at all. The closest one is 200 miles away or so. They just are not common in my area.
I saw someone on here who lanced their birds and I cannot find...
So I have a male quail I know he’s male because I have vent sexed and he is exhibiting mating behaviors. Do some quail just never crow? I would think he would start before trying to mate right? Or do they start mating before crowing sometimes? The rest of my males crowed before they started...
We had to euthanize our button hen yesterday due to progressive ovarian cancer and our poor little male is very distressed by her loss. We are working to find him a companion as quick as possible but so far have had no luck. While we continue to search we are looking for temporary solutions...
I've currently got three healthy hatched chicks in a brooder, but I also have still some three eggs left in the incubator. I'm getting a little worried, because it's about day 21 or 22 and I've heard that, while Quail can be late, 21 is the max? I've managed to candle then because there no...

Her beak is still in line and she can still drink water and have a sand bath should I take her to the vet later?

I arrived today to see how the quails are doing and saw this...
A few days ago I received 3 female quail which I very highly suspect one is a male! I’ve never owned or raised quails so forgive me if some of my questions seem silly!
We were told they will be fine in a small chicken coop so we purchased one that has a lockable hutch that has a ramp going into...
Hi everyone! I'm pretty new to taking care of quail, so I'm not very familiar with what is normal.
Recently, I've noticed my pet Coturnix quail has been favoring one of her feet a little more than the other--sometimes she seems to limp, other times she walks totally fine. She also seems to be...
My Quail are just a few days shy of 8 weeks. They have started laying eggs and so far all of the eggs are the colored beauties I expected. This morning though I found a completely white egg. Not one mark on it. Should I be concerned? My Quail also seem to lay at a particular time everyday...
i have always wanted to raise a quail from an egg as a pet
I have a few questions:
What is the friendliest type of quail
How long does it take for a quail to hatch
How do you care for a quail chick
If I raised a quail from an egg and spent lots of time with it would it be friendly
I have a 2.5m...
Considering I referred to this forum countless times while hatching/raising my Bobwhite Quail (that are now 13 weeks old) with close to no experience I figured it was time to make my own account. I hope to share my insight and seek advice from others! I'm raising my birds with the hopes of using...
So I live in an apartment and I own 1 single golden quail. I know that we need more, 2 or 3 but my mom says that 1 already makes such a mess (it doesn't, I clean up everything she does) then what will we do when we get more? I've tried convincing her I'll do everything required but she won't...
