Luzerne CountyWelcome Jan! I’ve hatched quail, but never raised them. They are SOOO cute! Where are you in PA? Southeast here....Chester County.
Yes, I have lots of chicks still hatching. Black Copper Marans, Welbars, Olive Eggers, Cream Legbars, even some Ameraucanas. I am "cherry picking" some to keep for next year's breeders, but many hatch each week that I don't want to keep.Sad day today. Rory, age 4 just up and died. She hadn't been laying for a while but they do that. I'm not going to do an autopsy or anything, I figure if you have live stock, you have dead stock. Everyone else seems alert and feisty. I'm getting 2-3 eggs a day from the remaining 4 that do lay - Cate, my Marans, hasn't laid in a long long time but she never was a prolific layer and her shells were always super fragile. Mabel is the only one remaining from the original store bought. Jaebels is the only one "bred" here on the property. Laverne, Shirley, and Clyde are the Ameracaunas from Dennis. I need need NEED to get to the hardware/lumber/Lowes store to get supplies to expand the run, now that I can go out again. Dennis, do you do large breed or only bantam now?
