hello!

Nike! :::collapses from exhaustion::: That was a marathon... (ba dum tsh) seriously though, I'd like an answer to this one too monarc23: Quote: it sure seems like way more than I could manage to eat, hatch, or give away without it being a full time job! Thanks for this post, thorough, and...

Yup, the huge ones. Anyone here raise them? (or know anyone in OH that does?) Moreover, anyone wanna help a fellow BYC member aquire a few? No one likes to ship these guys even short distances, and a 10 hours round trip car ride is not too appealing or convenient, looking for better options...

I looove eggs, and this is one of my motivations for starting a small coturnix flock. While laughing at people with big hands trying to crack small eggs is always good fun- anyone ever watch Iron Chef (the real one)? Morimoto and others have demonstrated the "easy way" 1. Take quail egg in hand...

well this throws a wrench in my tractor plans! glad I read this tonight though, because I was ready to start on it tomorrow! so much for happy free rangers, they'll have to be happy cage dwellers!

Quote: I know I'm brand new, but I've been reading up and ran across this. I have some of these guys- "super mealworms" for a separate but related project, and they'll become quail supplemental food as well when my coturnix arrive this week. from wiki: "...Zophobas morio is a species of...
