    Cross bred turkey coloring and pricing

    I'd pay more for mutts. I used to do all "pure breds" but they are more weak where my mutts are much hardier. Plus, inbreeding groses me out, I don't believe it's encouraged morally and there's a reason. I don't care how cute my button nose is I don't have to keep interbreeding just because of...

    Vaccinated chicken with unvaccinated chickens

    I'm with you one hundred percent but unfortunately people no longer do homework on their own health or their animals health anymore and rely a lot on what they are told.

    Quail and Chickens togethers?

    I've had my quail next to chickens as well with no problems (free range chickens, caged quail). Like anything they need to build up immunity but keeping them 100' apart doesn't build up their immunity to the other unless wind, birds, etc are exposing them often. Yes, if they aren't established...

    arkansas quail owners

    I've got a friend but she's too far south of there. Craigslist.org is a good source. Go to For sale, farm & garden, and search "quail".
