    Fencing

    I converted a 4' high dog pen into a run and they fly right out of it but if you clip their wings they can't.

    How many nesting boxes?

    I've always heard 1 box per 4 hens. It works out good for me.

    pecking problem's

    They are georgia jumbos and they are about five or six weeks old. Like I said I thought it might be overcrowding but the last batch was bigger than this one and I didn't have this problem.

    pecking problem's

    I had 38 quail in a brooder and now I'm down to about 30. My problem is some are pecking the top of the beaks off and killing the others. I don't think it is overcrowding because my last hatch I had more than this and had no problems. I even put limbs and such in there thinking it might stop it...

    Would this be a good incubator?

    The best one is from Rush Lane Poultry. He goes through each step in about four videos. My works great. I have hatched about 200 quail and 10 chickens , I just started with the chickens. I had 12 eggs and got 10 to hatch so that a prettt good hatch rate.

    Would this be a good incubator?

    You can make one out of a cooler for around $75. Just go on youtube and there is all kinds of videos on how to make one.

    can't figure it out

    I have had three hens turn up missing with no sign. The first time it was just one then a couple of weeks later I lost two in one day. No feathers,no nothing. Both times it was during the day. Anybody got any suggestions.
