    Serama hen hatching quails

    Thank you. The serama I have is tiny no much bigger than a grown quail. She is very careful and attentive. Second day now and she will stand up for 5-10 min feed the chicks then go back sitting and warming them up. The chicks are growing

    Serama hen hatching quails

    Not all seramas. My second serama is not that into. She wanted to leave the chick last year after 3 weeks by week 4 had to release to flock both as she wanted nothing to do with chick. Second serama took over.
