Hello from Granite Falls!

Thread Starter 

Hi! I am currently in Granite Falls Washington, a father of 4 little girls and we are all trying to get into raising quail. I have a pair of Vally quail, two button quail and four Cotournix quail just to get a feel for what the kids and I would like. Thus far I am still not sure but leaning towards Cotournix but i want to give one batch of Bobwhites a try before I make my decision. I build coops/pens around the area but again everything is just getting started so i am hoping to learn from your experiences. Thanks for reading,

 

Josh

If it looks like a duck, acts like a duck, but it doesn't quack like a duck-then it must be a Muscovey!!!

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan frow.gif

Home of the world's cutest dachshund, one crazy blue heeler, two cats,
              one fat pony, and many (but not too many!) chickens

              Can anyone tell me, how many are too many chickens?
