my fat hen...

[TheRealTimShady]

so when i first started with quail i bought 5 birds, 1m 4 females, thru the time 4 of them died, 2 from snakes and um, i relaly can't remember how the other 2 died lol. Anyway, i got one of my original birds left and jebuss, she is big. Here is a photo i took today, my hand isn't to fat but i have long fingers, so you can judge yourself how big she is

i don't have a scale she would fit on or else i would weigh her.

she doesn't even fit in my hands, approx age is 8-10 months.

That is a big girl!

She looks alot bigger than mine, and she weighed in at 10 oz recently. You need to get a scale! lol... I use a postal scale and love it.

 

[TheRealTimShady]

i think she is close to 16oz...she is HUGE compared to the other birds.

I think you are squeezing her too hard. Can't you see the look on her face??

Really nice bird. Shes a big one....


This one will be 21 weeks tomorrow. She's not quite 16 oz, but close. 444 grams = 15.68 oz... She dont believe the scales are right....
