So I have a roo and a hen and everything was fine until one day my hen decided she'll stay being very very mean. She was the size of my roo when I got her now she's much bigger because she eats all the food and leaves very little for him, he acts as if he does not want to eat if she's not there...
So I'm expecting a chick, the egg has been growing and it's getting darker in colour slightly so I'm expecting it to maybe hatch sometime this week but I've no idea what to do afterward. When can I separate it from the patents ? The roo is quiet probably not the father of that particular egg...
So I got my quail a lady 2 days ago and they've been getting along so well ! Today morning I've noticed that in their little nest area there is an egg ! I'm not sure what to do about it. I've been trying to get a better look at it and they've been very protective of it. It's dark and looks good...

I just got my button quail 3 days ago, I have him in an aquarium covered with cloth so he does not jump. He has water, food, and hiding places inside (still need to sort out a sandbox). He managed to jump out of there this morning after I had a nearly sleepless night because of his attempts to...
