So....over a year ago I had two incubators and hatched all my own chicks. I have since sold one of those incubators and kept one. I decided to try and hatch some quail so a few days ago I revved up the incubator. I left both thermometers in there (digital temp/humidy). They both said two...

I am looking to start with some quail as meat birds for my family. I was thinking about either Jumbo Coturnix or Texas A&M. Can anyone tell me how large their quail grow? Or maybe a trusted source of stock that yields large birds to get eggs from? Thanks for the input!

Hello everyone. I looked around and couldn't find this, i'm sure its somewhere. I have a chicken delivery scheduled for next week, should I call the post office, or just wait for the package at home?

My chickens and I do NOT agree on the purpose of plants....any plants at all. I have several times tried to plant a veggie garden (most recently 2 weeks ago) and they end up eating ALL of my plants. I just re-planted my garden (chose a container garden over my garden boxes this season), and...

After reading about it on here a few times I decided to pick up some water bottle when I was out shopping the other day (you know, the ones for bunnies, guinea pigs and the like). So far it has been a lifesaver! No more dirty quail water and they caught on super quick! Good thing since i...
