    Homesteading Career

    Hi y'all, my question is could I begin a homesteading career out of high school? I have thought about, made plans, business plans, and whatever else I could think of to start homesteading. This is my dream although I'm only 15 as of right now and I am starting a job that pays 14 a hour when I...

    Quail being bullied...

    Oh ok I might have mixed the gender up. I originally had them in pairs but a few of them had died. I'm worried if I put more bobwhites in with these they might become agressive to the new ones? Does anyone know if that's true or not?

    Quail being bullied...

    I just noticed another one of the birds has a less severe injury to the nose but I'm not sure if that's the aggressor or also being picked on.

    When will my quail start laying?

    My corturnix quail are about 17 wks and my georgia bobwhites are about 26 wks I figured they would start laying by now because we live in florida and it doesn't get very cold. At nights it gets around 30's and 40's so I keep a red inferred heat lamp on. I was wondering if they will start...

    Will Quail lay on other quails eggs?

    I was wondering if a quail will lay on another quails eggs? I have a mix of bobwhites and coturnix quail, if one of the coturnix lays the egg would the bobwhite sit on it as if it were her egg? The coturnix should start laying soon but the bobwhites have about another month.

    Housing Georgia Bobwhites and Coturnix Quail?
