    Quail

    My 5 button quail have just reached 6 weeks old... maturity. As their gift, I moved them from their enclosure of 1.5 feet in total for all 5 to a ginormous outdoor run in with over 8 square feet per bird. But I have a fear, what if they can't find what they need to? Rn they're hiding under the...

    Fertilized eggs for eating?

    I'm going to collect fertilized eggs, specifically quail eggs. I want to sell the fertilized eggs for hatching but I'd also like to eat some of them.

    Locking up Quail for the night

Is...

    Button quail sexing

    I have 5 button quail that are 30 days old. I have two whites, two redbreasted, and one silver. I've noticed one of the redbreasted is significantly smaller than the other, and also has some red on his tail area, so I think he's a male, but possibly not since the whole point of redbreasted is to...

    Button Quail Protection

    I have an outdoor coop that I am making for my button quail. It is not very sturdy, made of chicken wire and a nylon wrapper around. There are occasionally raccoons, cats, and even skunks wandering around our yard. Not often, though. My quail absolutely can not die. How can I protect them from...

    Are these Quail cold?

    5 button quail a bit over 3 weeks. Their temp is around 78 degrees. Are they cold? Also, I've noticed one lightly pecking the other. Affection, or the pecking order?

    Bird inbreeding

    I'm confused on how inbreeding in birds work. What if I wanted to take a random bird and breed the tamest ones for many generations. How could I do this while not inbreeding them but not needing to bring in new ones and lose progress

    Button quail digging

    Hello, I've recently been seeing my 5 2-3 week old button quail pecking at their wood chips, as if looking for food, when there is food on their regular tray. Any idea what this behavior is?

    Quail light problem

    I have button quail and I know they need around 12-14 hours of light to lay. Where I live, most of the year is under that. What should I do? Is there some special sort of light I can use?
