I am wanting to start up with quail and have absolutely no idea about them. What I am looking for is what size of a cage I need for about 60 snowflake or California Valley quail. Also what kind of feed do I buy for them? And what kind of nest do they need? Any links would be appreciated so I can...

Ok so I wormed and treated for lice/mites. I dont see any bugs anymore, but on my big Orpington girls vent area there are still eggs in the feathers. Should I pluck them out?
Wheezing, runny nose, eye bubble. What do I do? Cull the sick ones? Vaccinate the rest? I have a lot I money in my flocks!! How can I prevent them from getting it? The sick ones are quarantined
I'm just looking to see what others do at his age. I have mine in the shed with a light on in a little pen. How do you brood your chicks at this age when they still need a light and can't go in with the bigger chicks. What's the healthiest bedding at this age? Thanks
