    Can some one help with this question about Bobwhite quail?

    I’m using my previous chicken run for my new Bobwhite quail. Does anyone know how long you should wait or what you should do so the quail don’t get sick from the chickens. Do I need to lay sod over everything to cover the ground? I had chickens in this space for years so at what point do I know...

I've tried to read everything and am at such a loss. She doesn't interact with any of the other hens and sleeps alone in a nesting box closest to the...

    It sounds like she'll be ok. When you get ready to integrate her back into the flock I would do so very carefully. Good luck !
