Hey everyone,
One of my coturnix quail is having a hard time getting up when she lays on her side. She kicks the air and I’ve only seen her get up once on her own but that was only because I came close to her and she panics. Usually she can’t do it alone and I have to help her. She seems to be...
Hi everyone,
My quail chicks have just turned two weeks old and one of them still has a splayed leg. I picked them up at five days old and got it like that. I did the whole leg wrap thing since with it but it’s leg still isn’t getting better. It moves ok enough to get to the food and water but...
Hi everyone,
I have 15 quail chicks that are two weeks old and in my house. They have grown very fast and are beginning to outgrow their brooder. I was just wondering if it would be possible at this age to bring them to their hutch outside with a supplemental brooder plate. I live in LA and this...

Hey everyone,
My chicken coop is soon to be vacant as we are giving our hens to some friends due to their noise. I have been reading up on quail as an alternative to chickens because of how much quieter they are and I want to use my coop to hold them. I read that a quail cage should not exceed...

My 15 week old Easter egger has been consistently dropping this weird watery milky poop over the past few days and I don’t know if I should be worried. What does everyone think?
I have a 7 week old Easter egger who I am 90% sure is a pullet but not totally sure. It is defiantly the sweetest bird of the flock and I got it at tractor supply. What does everyone think
My barred rock is now 7 weeks old and I’m still pretty sure that it’s a pullet but not totally sure. It hasn’t had that much comb and wattle growth since the last time I posted it. Pullet or Cockerel?
My Speckled Sussex is now 6 weeks old yet I am still not sure his/her gender. He/She has had a lot of comb and wattle development since the last update and is starting to grow tail feathers. What does everyone think? Cockerel or Pullet?
I have a five week old barred rock who I am pretty sure is a pullet however lately has been looking a little more like a cockerel. What does everyone think?
This speckled Sussex is 4 a little over 4 weeks old and I am starting to suspect that it’s a rooster. It has a bigger redder wattles and comb than the other. Also it has not grown in its tail feathers like the others. Finally it gets a little aggressive with the others. However was definitely...
