    Why is my quail attacking my hand?

    One of my female coturnix quails just recently started pecking my hands and even jumping up to peck me whenever I go to feed them (or anyone that tries to feed them). It only started a few weeks ago. She is about 6 months old and at around 5-6 weeks old she seemed to just snap and attacked all...

    Help. Birds hatching but dying within 24 hours.

    Culled my first quail. Debrief thread.

    Hi. This is sort of a debrief for myself because yesterday I killed my first quail. I'm also curious about other people's first experiences killing quail or other poultry/livestock. It's my first time raising coturnix quail and I hatched this quail out of the egg. She had a crooked neck and a...

    Can you identify the colour of this Coturnix quail?

    Hi everyone! I am new to raising quail (or any poultry/gamebirds for that matter). I bought 2 dozen fertile jumbo Coturnix quail eggs, incubated them (boy was that an experience!), most of them hatched and now my chicks are 3 weeks old! Yay! I have 18 chicks. 15 of them are Jumbo Browns. 2...
