James Marie Farms has been great to deal with. I would not order from anyone else other then them! Like everyone they run into problems on occasion and are always willing to go the extra.
I am not going to be much help other then I know chickens carry lots of stuff that can kill quail and they shouldnt be kept together. Maybe someone will bring some info on that
I am also new at raising quail. I ordered from James Marie Farms after lurking around for a while. He is super nice and helpful and really seems to know what he is doing.
I cannot seem to find a local source for chicks or hatching eggs. I am in NM and would like to get some. I would like to start with about a dozen live ones or 2 dozen eggs. If you have some you are wanting to sell please pm me. Thanks
