So i want to start raising quail but not sure how to go about it. have had chickens for some time now and am wondering what the differneces are.
ive been told that quail dont free-range and that they must be kept in their cages. so, what do the cages look like? how many can stick in there and do they congregate together or need their own little "cubbies"? ive heard both ways and i dont know which is correct.
do they perch like chickens?
will they incubate their own eggs or do i HAVE to do this?
how is their egg production in general?
anything else i should know before getting my heart too set on these little guys?
thanks all,
chase
