Ok, I have my coop built its about 60 to 70 square foot, will be using Cortunix quail for meat and eggs. Ihave my incubator with auto turner built and ready to go. So my queation s I will be starting with 6 hens and one male. After I go hatch my my first set of eggs and feather out the chicks before moving the outside to the coop can you put in the first coop or do I need to build a grow pin. If I have put them in a grow out pin and lets say the first hatch you get 3 hens and 3 males won't that become a problem if so can you put just the males in a grow out pin and the hens back into the main flock? The ones I will be hatching will be the ones meat. What do most of you guys and gals do if you only have one coop?
I have been on the forum for over a month reading and researching but just can't seem to find the answer to this.I think I have got everything else covered but this. If I have to build a grow out pin I want to do this before bring my first quail home.
Sorry if this sounds like dumb question but there is some much info on this site sometimes you ned a guide to point you in the right direction.
Thank youI
