    What Is In My Hens Droppings?

    Thank you! I think they are probably Caecal worms, because they were so small and kind of s shape when they moved.

    Show me your quail pens!!!

    I recently got quail. It is my first time keeping them. I've kept chickens in the past. I'm housing them in an old chicken coop/yard. I have 4, three female and one male. We're going to get about 15 more in the spring and expand the bottom part of their yard out about another 6 feet long...
