    Andy's Chickens - A New Saga

    I used to have a flock of quail last year. It ended in tragedy, and for a few months, I didn't do anything, but now I'm starting a new flock, this time with chickens! I mail ordered ten Buff Orpingtons (chose the breed because they were quiet, large, and tame, and that's what my mother would...

    how do y'all pick up quail without them pooping on you

    I keep seeing pictures of people cuddling with their quail, without wrapping them in paper towels or anything. I've even seen people putting quail in their shirts. If I did that, I would be pooped on constantly. How do y'all do it?
