    Will male Coturnix quail crow louder in the presence of other males?

    I was hoping to have two breeder groups (1m/5f each) next to each other. Even with enough females, they're still going to crow? If I block them from seeing other, will they still crow a lot? I'm 99% sure that I will have to, but still asking for the 1% of me that has fingers crossed. :lol:

    Will male Coturnix quail crow louder in the presence of other males?

    I want to raise groups of breeding Coturnix quail adjacent to each other. Will the male quail crow louder in front of each other? I am mainly raising the quail because they are quiet so minimal noise would be nice, haha. TIA! :)

    This is what I am in the middle of doing too!! I definitely agree about the water draining thing, it is what I am planning to do. Good luck! :)

    Best hygrometer?

    I am more comfortable with a hygrometer since quail eggs are typically hard to see through. Thank you, though!

    Best hygrometer?

    Hi! I've found a thermometer for my incubating purposes, the Brinsea thermometer, but I can't find a highly recommended hygrometer. Wet bulb thermometers also confuse me too much. What do yall recommend? I will be incubating quail for now, if it matters. Thank you! :)

    What are the best coyote deterrents?

    I will be moving away quite soon, maybe in a year, so we'll see then about keeping my poultry in tractors. Thank you for the suggestions! I would like to make a tractor using 1/4in hardware cloth, but even with a skirt, a coyote COULD push it over. It's just not worth the worry...

    What are the best coyote deterrents?

    Tall fencing won't go well because of it'd be such a huge investment for such tiny birds AND my neighbors would go ballistic because it would block their river/city lights view. I mean I get the latter, but yea. No tall fence. Everyone only has about, at max, 6' fencing for the sides and not for...

    What are the best coyote deterrents?

    That's my best bet at the moment. I might just raise them on my deck because it's 6' off the ground and can only be accessed through the house. I really wanted to put them on pasture but this seems like my best bet after learning that electric fencing is a no go and that I can't afford to build...
