    Texas A&M Sexing???

    I'm not that dumb. I guess I took you wrong. It is just hard to see who crows and to see who would lay when you have a pen of 50. Just saying. That's why I asked for visual cues

    Thinking about hatching quail

    DAY 0... / Hatching has begun!!

    It is an amazing sight. This was my very first hatch and got 93 out of 134. I really do commend you for what you are doing to try and batch with what you have. Most people wouldn't even think about trying.
