In my car porch. Airy place. I want to use bleach but not sure about its concentration. Different videos suggest wildly different concentrations. What's your experience?
I want to keep chicken for eggs and also for meat. I have a choice between Rhode Island Red and Australop. Temperatures in Islamabad range from - 2 to + 43 degrees Celcius. I don't want to use commercial feeds. Please help me decide.
Grateful. I also planned to add quails at the mid-level along the wall. Following the fisheries formula.Top feeders, mid level feeders and bottom feeders.
I want to have a 8 foot high coop with chicken on the ground while Budgies and Diamond Doves on the top. I'll make their nests 7 foot high and PVC pipes for sitting. My question is that will there be any threat of disease transmission to the chicken?
Found all of my 6 quails dead an hour ago. All but one had heads missing and good 2.5 inch whole in the wire mesh cage with wires pulled inside. One bird was eaten in a two inch diameter others just had missing heads, could not find the heads anywhere around.What could it be? Rat, Mongoose...
She was not eating well . Now she is just sitting with head down. Gave her antibiotic yesterday that spilled out in a minute. Today I can see a big lump near the neck. I salughtered one some time back with a lump and found that here was a blockage in the food pipe (swelling and growth). Any idea?

Strange topic? Yes, I was told that these quails can't fly,atleast the domesticated ones. I tried today on my quails purchased from different sources and yea they can hardly fly a foot or so, even can't land slowly when released from 3-4 foot height, they land and rollover.All are over 3 months...

A quail eats 36 gms while a hen eats 100gms per day (2.77 times). By weight quail weighs 250gms in 8 weeks while a medium hen weighs 1.5. kg (6 times) in the same period. How is quail a more efficient bird ?
Bought four more today.two whites and two quite dark in colour. The seller said the female has a white face and neck while the male is brown faced.I winder what the dar coloured pair is by breed. Plan to send pics soon.Some call the dark ones as wild.
