    Newly aquired button quail

    I went to an auction today for small farm animals. I came home with 4 little button quail. However now that I have them home I've noticed a few things I wanted to ask all of you about. I did hatch about 30 coternix quail once but that was many years ago. First off going by the color guides I've...

    ID this golden pheasant chicks gender?

    I had been thinking she was a hen but here lately I am not so sure. She was hatched on the 6th of this month so she is just under a month old.

    I have about 5 different bird cages here, and I was wondering if the wire bottom would hurt the feet of baby chicks if I used one as a brooder. I am planning on putting some cardboard in a rim around the outside to keep the heat in of course. I am going to keep them indoors at first but I have a...

    How long should I wait for them to hatch? EDIT Updated with video!

    My golden pheasants were due to hatch yesterday evening. They are right now about a day late, and there is no peeping nor any indication of any kind of pipping. The temp did get down by about 5 degrees for a few days while I was struggling with my incubator. I am hoping that slowed down the...

    Due to hatch in 2 days, but one is odd

    I have some golden pheasant eggs due to hatch day after tomorrow. ( Yay! ) I had 2 that were obviously infertile and threw them out earlier. One of the others is looking strange and I'm thinking it died halfway through development or something, but I'm not certain. It's not nearly as solid as...
