    I won't. It's happened before to my indoor quails and she have up.

    Broody CPQ

    That was my plan. I'm not going to disturb them by moving them now - one of the males is sitting too for her. When they hatch I'm going to attempt to just block the others off until I can pop them in a brooder box.

    Broody CPQ

    Thank you! I'm going to set up a broody box just in case the others turn on her and the chicks. I'll be watching like a hawk!

    Broody CPQ

    So! My broody quail. I'm slightly worried about this. She's in with four other quails, outside. I don't want to remove them and disturb her from being broody, or remove them only for her to not sit the whole time anyway. I have no idea how long she's been sitting. I went to clean them out today...

    Mysterious Egg

    Hi everyone, I've had a pair of society finches for about a year now and we assume both are girls with my iffy guessing of sex (did a fair bit of googling and I'm assuming both are female due to a thread I read on 'long and short calls' and females being the only sex able to produce long calls...

    Broody Hen

    We've hit a hurdle guys :( Mrs quail has stopped sitting properly! She's still pushing her eggs into the corner but she's doing a very half-arsed job to be quite honest. I've covered half the cage so she's less disturbed by me if - god forbid - I have to go in my room. Huff!

    We have lift off! Instead of hairspray I ended up using chalk which seemed to do the trick. Mamma and daddy quail are now alone and hopefully in a few weeks or more we might have babies! Wish me luck everyone!

    Broody Hen

    Hi guys! So I bought my indoor quails not long ago, few months a best. The lady I bought them off of told me that one of the quails had in in fact raised her own young and went broody. Now all my quails eggs are pushed into a corner each day. However I never see any of my females sitting. Which...

    Fighting male

    Hi guys. He's not mating, I know that for sure. He keeps yanking out their feathers and grabbing them and dragging them around the cage, and they make an awful lot of noise in the process. I've split him at the minute but I have the feeling he'll continue to attack. Pls the others seem more...

    Fighting male

    I recently bought 8 new quail that live indoors. The lady kept them as three males as five females and she says they're never fought. However I have a male that very violently attacks basically everyone in the pen. Females mostly, actually. He's separate at the minute but I can't really keep...
