Newbies in Central Coast, CA

Hello, my husband and I have been wanting chickens for a long time, but it turns out we are starting out with quail because my sister-in-law won quail eggs!  They hatch in the beginning of August and I feel like a new mom! :)  We are totally new at this so any tips related to quail are much appreciated!

Welcome to BYC!

If you are getting chickens in the future and keeping the quail, make sure they are separated. They can spread diseases to each other if they are together. Otherwise, good luck with your hatch! smile.png

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
