    GameBird Gazette

    I agree! I ordered this magazine in June 2014 and have never received an issue despite being told several times on the phone that I would. I ask for a refund, was told I would receive a refund along with a complimentary copy of the magazine......to date I have not gotten anything. I complained...

    -Raising Bobwhite Quail-

    Just my opinion , and I am a newbie to quail, but I would separate them. They say bobwhite are aggressive and they get bigger than the coturnix so you might endanger the smaller birds.

    I would have thought these hens were roosters because of the combs and wattles. I have some Ancona chicks about 10-11 weeks old, maybe I have more hens than I thought!

    How big should the brooder be?

    Would there be a problem with a brooder built from cedar fence pickets? I read that cedar shavings were bad.

    Incubating French Black Copper Marans

    Thank you so much! That explains a lot! I just won't put it in the BCM's pen. I also have some mixed breeds, if it is a hen, will put it with them for egg sales.

    Incubating French Black Copper Marans

    I have what may seem like a dumb question. I have 15 Black Copper Marans eggs in my incubator , out of the 10 that have hatched, one of the chicks is a yellow color. My question is if the breeding hens and roo are full blood Blacks, can they throw a light chick or are the parents not full...

    I too would like to know what vaccines we should do. I am incubating my first set of eggs, hopefully to hatch the first of next month. Any advice would be welcomed!

    Much cheaper at feed store. Think I paid about 4 or 5 dollars for mine.

    flight netting (where to buy)

    Are you referring to netting like you use to protect berries from birds? If so I would think you could find that netting in a garden center. I was wondering about using that on our run to keep out hawks, I am new to this.

    Thank you! What are the certain situations that you need to test any birds you might sell? My thoughts are to sell some chicks that I hatch in an incubator if it is not a big problem to do so.

    I am new to raising chickens and new to Texas. Do you have to have your flock tested if you are not showing them ?
