I am no expert or anything like it. Just started raising Coturnix quail myself but I was wondering how many hours of daylight do they get? From everything I have read and heard they need 12 to 14 hours of light to lay consistently. So you might think about that. I have seen where people used...
I have 35 3 1/2 week old chicks and I have already had to buy my second bag of starter (50 pounds) so a 50 lb. bag is cheaper than buying smaller amounts. They will go through the feed because they are still growing and need all the nutrition they can get.
