My brother wanted to feed my quail today. He put the feed in and tried to close the pen door but didn't notice two of the quails legs very sticking out and closed the door breaking two of their legs. One of the quails legs I can fix but the other quail has severe bleeding the the bone is...
Helpp.
I dont know what is wrong. I have 10 chicks in a brooder and 8 of them are like this. I have given them more food, they have lots of water. I changed their bedding for the first time last week and this has occurred since then. I checked their feet and they look fine to me but...
My quail were in their run feeding off the earth. It is a new run so I had my doubts, but confidence over weighed any. I was in my house and I noticed the birds started going made flying around. J look outside and I saw a crafty fox running around the outside of the coop trying to get in. I...
I.have three quail living in a small chicken coop like this. Their old pen got way to dirty and was old so I have them a new home. However I noticed one of them is shivering I think but they wont go inside as quail don't like using ramps. I know quails are dopey but do they at least know to go...
Hi. I have three quail in a pen for egg production. One male and two females. Today I noticed there were drops of blood everywhere in the pen I checked each of the quail and could not see any obvious injuries. I checked for any odd behaviour but again failed to notice any. Does anyone have any...
Hi guys. I had switched from a water bowl to this contraption and I have to say it is working very well indeed. had/does anyone else do this as well? It prevents the chicks spilling water everywhere making the brooder damp and humid! This lil fella overdrunk to much and started spitting water...
Please move to one side if you come across this chick! Sure she is tiny and smaller than the rest but she is the top dog! She was born very late, but she looked the cutest, like a little bumble bee. I worried the others would bully her but as soon as I put her with the others she dominated the...
Hi guys. I recently hatched some chicks from my adult Japanese quail and somehow I have a blonde chick. She.looks like a mini chicken chick. Any ideas what colour she will be? I dont think she is texas quail because her parents and grandparents are standard Japanese.
My chicks are around 10 to 15 hours old and I have put them into a brooder like this.
They started shivering I think,and have huddled together near the light bulb. Does this mean I put them in too soon? Appreciate any input. Thanks
Also the light bulb in hot when I touch it, should I close...
Hi
Yes I know what you're thinking " what an idiot" and the truth if you are probably right. I have an excuse if you really want to know how such stupidity was possible, but I'm sure you dont ;).Does anyone know how to roughly guesstimate? Thanks
Hi guys
In my previous thread I mentioned I have a quail separated from the rest of the flock because her eyes had been pecked. One eye was closed for days but today I noticed her opening it a few times (y). However I am worried. She is always falling asleep during the day and night and...
Hi I am Javed from London. I am an ambitious quail farmer who hasn't farmed any quail technically. I have 2 males and 4 females and loads of eggs that I have no idea what to do with.
Hi guys i am a new registered user however I have been following this forum for a very long time :)
Last week I noticed one of my hens looked very tired and weak compared to the rest of my quail. So I decided to separate her and my other hen from the male for a few days so they can get some...
