She's turning 2 this january, currently 1. She eats chop (vegetables, with around 3-6 different veggies) and pellets and a little bit of seeds daily.

Im just going to say this, look, sorry, I did not know this offended you, but I wasn't really trying to spread it everywhere, I was just stating the facts I knew, and imo theres bits and other bobs with miscalculation and information, but its not entirely very wrong, but I support and appreciate...

Hi all, I'm interested in hatching again after reading all the hatch alongs, super exciting times. :wee The chicks are super adorable and well-cared for! I had several breeds off birds, but most of the time I just stuck with the 2 same breeds, a Sussex and a coturnix quail (and parrots). Well...

I have several cockerel's atm, but I do have 2 roosters. 1 of them over mates all the poor females, and 1 is the sweetest thing ever.

:thumbsup Alrighty!

Thanks! Im interested in Sussex, silkies and buff orpingtons from the list. Also interterested in: bantam cochin white leghorn ameraucana are they known for going broody?

Do you mean chickens or quails?

Im interested in broody chickens at the moment, could you recommend some?

These two are males. All the rest are females, from what i see in the pictures. coturnixes male have a ginger brown chest, while females have whitish gray chests. Males will also, (more commonly) have gray beaks, while females have pronounced pink noses and white/gray beaks. Another great sign...

So, just to clarify, chickens and ducks are more likely to go broody than quails?

What do you raise them on? Same for us, just a few weeks ago they were still chicks, less than a year old, and we used a outdoor area, with pads and settups, but poo would get everywhere. How do you solve a good method?

They arent in the same pen, its around 5-6 females quails per pen, we did get more females, so 1 male per 5-6 females.

Oh, alright~! How about Chickens or ducks?

I have 8 coturnix quails, 3 males and the rest are all females. They lay at least 1 egg a day, and they wont go broody. I even setup mini nests, and nestsboxes for them, still no broodies. also- will the females not accept their babies if i incubate them?

Alrighty i oonly have these, ill get better ones later
