One of my female quail looks like she has an egg stuck in her butt and her butt is poised up looking like shes trying to get it out. Is there anything I can do to help?
I have 9 quail (3 female Jumbos and 4 males jumbos) and 2 White texas A&M that I don't know.
I keep them all together and they started laying 5 days ago 1 egg each day so now I have 5. Do you think they are fertile or not?
It's actually meant to be a mini fridge/heater and people have had success reptile/chicken eggs

I got my first bad experience w/ the post office like 2 weeks ago. I bought 70 quail eggs on ebay and he gave me the tracking # on Wednesday(The tracking page didnt update at all). It still didn't come by Monday so that got me worried. I messaged the guy and he responded the next day saying he...

Has anyone heard of this brand? I found a feed store near my area that says they carry South States Feed in a 50lb bag. Does anyone know if this is a good brand? And how long will it last? I only have about 10 quail about a month old.
I have a couple quail that I hatched out myself( Only about 2 wks old now.) Is it possible for them to be exposed to any diseases if they have not been exposed to other birds? The reason im asking is because my mom is scared that they carry avion or some other disease.
I wish I lived in Mexico... maybe not.. but it's amazing how you can make a living off raising only quail o.o
Here's a documentary/success story (In another language tho)
Thanks guys for the input.
I can see what you mean by buying from a random ebayer but I talked to him and he is a very nice person. Also, I don't have any feed stores around because I live in a urban area.
I bought a few pounds of this:
