    Tennessee - laws to sell meat and eggs

    As for the Quail, I think it depends on the type/strain of quail. Bob Whites are the Official Native state game bird and you must apply for (pay) and obtain an annual license though the TWRA just to own, hatch eggs, sell or cage them. There is NO work around trick such as if the hen lays eggs...

    Ever since 2022- I have had 2 strokes. The first was major, and #2 just made my right side body with the numb Ice cold feeling after effects. Thus I have cut back on many of my activities as I am now disabled.

    Bobwhite quail hatch update

    Note! I do not raise bob whites any more but in the past I have hatched out over 10,000 Baby Bob's 500 at a time. In such I brought all of them up to adults with good results and hatches.

    Anyone ever ordered Georgia Giants from Wadley Quail Farm?

    Yes! I have ordered over 4000 from wadely over 6 years for my dog training. 250 + at a time. Good hatch rates 94%+ or more. GA Giants are a good run in any order.... it gets harder to have a higher hatch rate with 250-500 eggs per hatch. Its a natural selection thing. Nature. I have incubated...

    Electric and heating issue

    Build a small fire if you can and put some bricks around it (or old cast iron pot) and let them warm to the desired temps. Alternate them and in the c group you can swap them out as they cool down. If you are in town, just put some on the grill and no one should complain about a fire, if they do...

    Review by '' on item 'Thermostat Wafer Switch Complete'

    As stated in another review "The wafer has been around for a long time and works very well". Probably better than any other mechanical system I have seen or DIY McGyver(ism) Manual/Mechanical control unit you can dream up! The fact of this design is that it is not a brand specific item. You...

    Positioning eggs in incubator

    What I was referring to was the lock down phase in which many people will take the eggs out of the turner trays and lay the eggs on their sides 3-4 days prior to piping and hatching. You dont want the eggs laying flat and touching at 4 points (R&L sides and Pointy and Fat ends back to back side...

    Putting young quail together

    Coturnix vs Bobwhites .. JJMR794 said it best ....BOBS ARE FLIGHTY, SPAZ-PRONE, SLOW GROWING GAME BIRDS WITH A JUNKYARD DOG ATTITUDE. I concur. https://www.backyardchickens.com/threads/coturnix-vs-bobwhite.302118/#post-3703336

    Mother given birth to 3 chicks

    Most Mommas know what they are doing and chicks do as well. Mother nature is usually the better option.
