    First time duck raider is this normal?

    We hatched one single Pekin duck last week. Today when I was handling him I noticed his butt looks like this. It hasn't looked like this before, Normal? Just a boy? A prolapse? It's eating, drinking and pooping fine If something is wrong what do I do? Thanks, we are quite attached to it already

    My FrankensteinBATOR Quail hatching + Robin, 2 surprises in one.... Need some help quick.... ;)

    I agree. Every time you open up your incubator the humidity changes and could cause the membrane to dry like shrink wrap prevent them from breaking out. Be careful removing the shell it's best to let it dry up and fall off. It's kind of like a woman's placenta because there are blood vessels...

    male Coturnix living arrangements

    I usually cull unwanted males between 6-8 weeks. At about 6 weeks is when they start picking on each other. If you do separate them keep then out of sight from the females.

    Coturnix Quail Basics- Information and Pictures Galore

    Sorry I didn't read the whole thread. Pharaoh quail tend to max out at 10-12 ounces a jumbo should be at least 14 oz as an adult bird. For the largest coturnix buy James Maire Farm Meat Makers.

    Want to guess the sex?

    Unless they are of the brown ( jumbo Browns, Pharos ) coloration you will only be able to tell by vent sexing and they are still to young for that.
