One quail is hatched and nine more have externally piped
I think that it's because the chicks grow so fast that they need high protein but not sure about why the adults still need higher protein then, for example, chickens
:wootWe have seven males that we are getting ready to eat, we are keeping the four females and one male, the first quail I've ever hatched. Three females are laying, out of setting 13 eggs only one was not fertile (and two died) so I'd say the male is doing pretty good:gig
Hey guys I'm back after not being on for a while, but I'm leaving to go into the mountains on horseback tomorrow
I hope everything is okay @Tesumph!! :hugs:hugs:fl

I'm so so so sorry but don't fret to much, no matter how careful you are things still happen. It's part of life, everyone experiences chick casualties at some time.:hugs:hugs
