    Weighed some coturnix today

    Quote: I have been feeding purina 30% gbs for about 4 weeks then switching over to 20% lonestar layer crumbles. I tend to use a slightly scientific approach to stuff I graduated college in biology. I had also weighed these new birds at 4.5 weeks and the bigger ones weighed 8-9 ounces at that...

    Feed question?

    Thanks for all of your opinions. You are right it is alot easier to feed one type of feed, keeps you from running out of one type at a bad time. I used to feed my rabbits all different kinds of feed and one day I decided it was too much trouble and just stuck with one type also.

    Dressing Quail

    I like to skin them and keep the whole bird there is a good bit of meat on those thighs and legs if you cook them carefully and don't dry out the legs.
