saddles for quail...

[therandomhatcher]

I have 13 quail. 10 4 week olds and 3 8-11 week olds. The first batch had a 2m-1f ratio. I kept the female with one male at a time. It is going to be 85-90 degrees here in pa so I moved them out with the other ones. The hatchery we got them from has his quail keep the day-olds warm in his cages and it works out fine for him. So I through ten quail in their... All of them got r*ped. Even the males. I took one of the males out which is more aggressive and it is working better, but not perfect. So I was wondering if the banty size saddles would fit a jumbo/standard coturnix quail mix 10/12 ounces.

No.

You have waaaaaay too many males. Coturnix do best with one male to 3-5 females, preferably with only one male per pen.

I have the aggressive male in the bachelor cage and I will keep him in there until the other birds are old enough or big enough to eat.
