    Looking to get into quail.... Feed/Housing questions!

    Sounds awesome! I think I will try hatching them so they hatch the day before christmas, that gives me some time to get everything together... Plus little quail chicks would be an awesome christmas present!!!

    Looking to get into quail.... Feed/Housing questions!

    Thanks so much! I believe they will be living inside (We have a chicken coop, but only half of it is housing the chickens, the other half is where we store the feed, so I don't think we'll have to worry about that disease that quail can get from chickens). Is it cruel to keep them inside full...

    I haven't posted on here in what seems like forever! Anyways, I am currently looking into getting some coturnix quail- Preferably a trio/pair of goldens and a trio/pair of A & M or english whites. I was wondering what to feed them in the earlier stages of their lives and when they are mature...

    ***Crevecoeur Thread***

    Wow, I haven't been on BYC for a while! I feel so guilty since I began this thread... Those are some gorgeous birds! If you need to refer to what they should look like/the standard, I believe I have it copied to the first post.

    Olive is beginning to lay again! I found an egg in her section, so I put out a bowl with some hay in it so she doesn't get pushed out of the "big girl" nest boxes!!!

    Review by '' on item 'Belgian d' Anver'

    I love my d'anver! She's a great little thing, and quite a stunning bird for showmanship. They're also very cold hardy and can withstand New England winters easily. They stay clean very easily, and have the cutest little squeals! They are also great for juniors because of their out-going...

    Yep, I've been working with her and been feeding her some popcorn and she's coming around. I don't think she's ever been outdoors; I let her out into the run and she seems to be very interested in her surroundings. On the other hand, Big Bertha (My new cochin) has settled in just fine and has...

    Sorry that I'm cluttering up the d'anver thread with plymouth rocks however no one has replied to the rock thread on here... Oh and those were cell-phone pics, so not the best.
