    Sick cockerel! He is in need of help!

    Good morning everyone and thank you for your prayers and tips. Sadly, Billy passed away this morning from weakness and stress overnight. Hurricane Irma did not do any destruction to our home except a few broken branches and leaves. Thank you again for all your help.

    Sick cockerel! He is in need of help!

    I've dealt with this before and what I'm feeding him is rich in good fats. I am in the middle of a hurricane, so I can't go get more food. I'm making do with what I have until Irma leaves! :)

    Incubating eggs

    Hi guys. So, which do you think would be better, incubating quails or chickens? I've done chickens before many times but have never done quails. I have my own fertile quails eggs. Which would be cuter?!?!

    Chicks

    You would need a broody hen, or you can make an incubator. Look up some ideas to make one. But don't just follow those instructions that tell you to put the eggs on a towel, cover them with a washcloth, and put a heat lamp over it. Those are not incubators and do NOT work!!!
