    Difficulty telling sex of some of our jumbo browns

    I agree, it just seems hard to know what your getting even after many questions. I suppose it could be that way no matter where your getting them from. I suppose so. Especially if who you are asking doesn't know the answers lol

    I would say the problem is with the breeder not with craigslist. Bad breeders can be selling anywhere. Just gotta find someone thats got there heart in it as my granddad would say. /B]quote name="Glorybee" url="/t/1015301/difficulty-telling-sex-of-some-of-our-jumbo-browns#post_15739893"] Yes...

    Got my incubator

    Set your temperature and add a little bit of water. If you have a small Styrofoam or plastic incubator there should be little lines in the bottom. Just fill 2 or 3 of them. If you put too much water it will drag your temperature way way down because of app the humidity so dont flood it. Test...

    Sounds like you are raising them from babies to slaughter size. Male quail start getting aggressive once they mature and begin the breeding/laying season. You are slaughtering them before they ever get to this point.

    A&M quail problems!!

    Were these birds raised together? Or were 2+ groups merged into one? Someone asked if the Golden Italians would make for nice big bbq birds. These are all the same (Coturnix) quail just a different color. If you are going for bigger/jumbo birds then you would simply have to find some selectively...

    What I buy comes in a crumble. Looks the same as chick starter. You can get it at your local feed store I'm sure.

    why arent my quails producing eggs? :(

    Lack of Light is the issue. Quail do not naturally lay this time of year because the days are shorter. If you want them to start laying you can put a light on them to make sure they get 14-16 hours of light. However, it will still take 3-4 weeks for them to start laying. Natural my they will...

    Any Advice is Welcome and Appreciated

    Jumbo Coturnix Quail. They reach butcher weight at approximately 8 weeks. Northern Bobwhites are another option. They grow slower and will take longer to reach butcher weight. Coturnix would probably be your best option since your trying to market them.
