I'm trying to get the biggest bird I can just wondering if these big AMS will make the Jumbos bigger.

I checked with my state, alabama and since Pharoah quail are not gamebirds here they told me I didn't need a breeders license.

Just wait until day 17 or 18 for the hatch.

The quail in the front looks to be female because it looks like a Brown Pharoah and has no red breast. As far as the quail in the back I can't tell but watch it to see if it crows or not.

oK thanks but will they big as the Texas A &M's?

Can I cross Texas A & M with a Jumbo Brown and what will I get?

CVA got it right for Pharoah Quail. I always butcher them no later than 8 weeks because I can't afford to keep them longer than that. I keep my breeders longer to lay eggs though. They will lay at 6 - 8 weeks old as but this time of year they need 16 hrs of light. I always plan on a minimum 2...

I have raised Jumbo Browns for a long times and started my first flock of Texas AM's 9 weeks ago. Mine will be 10 weeks this Monday. They are noticeably bigger than my Browns. They egg is much larger too. So far I am happy with them. Hope they are good layers too.

To start with, what kind of quail eggs did you buy? Different quail lay and mature at different rates.

I have a medium size pine tree beside my chicken coop. It's about 30 feet high. I trained my flock of chickens to roost in this tree and them battle for position every evening. some of them get 15 - 20 feet up. They love this tree and so far I haven't lost any birds to owls or anything.

I hatched out 60 bobwhites last year and turned them loose. I watched the hawks wipe them out. One hawk would fly low over the field and spook a quail to jump and the 2nd would swoop down and grab it out of the air. They are relentless and it seems every 1/2 acre has 2 or 3 different kinds of hawks.

I'm new here too. What is a "stickie"?

I mix my poo with pine shavings then I shovel it out into a compost bin and let it rot for a while before I put it on the garden. Yea that's strong stuff so you gotta be careful not to burn up the plants by directly applying to the garden. The only way I spread it directly fresh is on my grass...

BFrancis that is a beatiful pen! I raise my on the ground as well. The sole reason I do it though is for the mixture of droppings and litter for my garden.

to get them that big that fast what kind of feed do you feed them?
