I cant open the incubator.as the quail eggs are on lockdown. Ive got goose egg in, hen eggs in a few days later then.quail eggs 2 days after that. This next hatch should be more organised as in eggs hatching at a similar time. I hav to picture of a gosling kangaroo though, in a dressing gown...
Im in a built up area never seen any predetors in the two years ive had hens here, now im fenced in, lights, camera, and gun at the ready. Id be quit happy to have them free, the water would be the only way into the coop making night attack nore difficult. A railway sleeper is a large piece of...
The brown coop is 9sq ft and 3.3 foot high. Yeah i just built my fence on friday, made the garden a much better space. The next plan is to rip the patio and grass out and turf and lay cobble stones and gravel. Oh and build a wee goose kingdom! I was thinking coop then sleeper pond, long, that...
yesterdays egg collecting accompanied by my gosling. Here is my garden with he chocken and.quail enclosure on the right at the back, im thinking of using the dark brown coop with railway sleeprs for a goose coop and pond. Eother on the roght next to wall or at the back of the garden, what do you...
I raise quail to sell, eat and eggs. Yes the new egg is embden also. I can see the chick is already large! When could he in theory hold his own with chickens?
Bonding in the bathroom haha. By bumble bee i ment the size... ive got another goose egg to hatch! A friend hopefully!
So my gosling nibbles at my fingers especially my wedding ring is this going to relate to nipping as he ages? morning bath
It fell over, thats why i put a tea towel down, the silicone matt isnt grippy enough. Cutest chick iver ever hatched, way better than even the miniture bumble bee quails.
it is a chimney/vent haha. See the 6ft fish/chick tank behind, that will be free next week (thats where my quail chicks are currently) The sliding glass panels are brill for spectating and assisting. You havnt seen the bottle with nipple on to keep the water dish topped up...
ive got ALLEN & PAGE GOOSE & DUCK GROWER FINISH PELLETS coming tomorrow, ill blebd that into a crumb. But for today... anything i can blend up like oats and barley grass etc and offer grit on the side?
My waterer -
Just thinking of a feeder. -
my micro pellets contain avatec lasalocid an aid in prevention of coccodiosis in game only. Is this dangerous for goslings?
And i have layers pellets -
And whole barley. Im trying hard to get goose and duck pellets today.but if not any suggestions?
great info here! Regarding pellets these are micro pellets i have, i usually blend anyway for the first week so ill do that. Brewers yeast - any reason or can bread yeast be added? Activated or non? And just to check a tab is a tablespoon?
Im intreged by the feeder info, non slip you say.. hmm...
I know geese have certain problems with feed, will my heygates game micro pellets be okay, if i add the N stuff with brewers yeast to water. Ill double check it isnt.medicated, does any one.know.what to look for? Im sure.most feeds say if they are treated.
Ill see how it gets on. Itll be a stuffed friend if the quail and it dont get on, havnt got access to any chicks, may request a few more eggs. The 1 day old goose towers above the 3 week old quail haha. Unbelievable! Have your goslings been wobbly or strong on day 1? Thankyou
I assisted... im not proud, no blood, no yolk sack in sight, may have made the right decision. Haha
The membrane was stuck to wing and eye. Probs due to low humidity and opening the incubator to float test on day 29 during lockdown. Its pushed out after i assisted, making lots of peeping. Im...
