    Things you wish you could say

    That the following didn't happen today: I parked in front of someone's house today where they put cat litter down to soak up spilled oil, but after I stepped out of the car, I saw and smelled that it was used kitty litter. 🤢

    What made you happy today?

    This wasn't today, but rather earlier this week. I had a friend visit and we had a week of adventures. We went to see waterfalls, went hiking, explored lava beds and caves, and had lots of good food. Here is a quick pic of some bentos that I made for the trip to the waterfalls. The temaki...

    Gel polish requires UV light to set.

    ⭐ Kiki's Year Long 🌶️

    I have discovered that, while caves can be interesting, spelunking is certainly never going to be my first choice of hobbies. These petroglyphs are in the 2400-4500 year old range.

    Is it gel polish? If it is, did you put it under a UV light?

    Need advice introducing young chicks to the flock

    The males will pay attention to the chicks, but I doubt that will cause them to not pay attention to their ladies. The look but no touch isolation enclosure is a good way to get the two groups used to each other. You won't want to integrate them until the younger ones are 6 weeks or older.

    What is wrong with my hen?

    Oh, I'm sorry, but if the seizure hasn't stopped, it's probably best to euthanize. I suspect that she flushed and hit her head, but it's hard to say without knowing a lot more about your setup.

    How to get an adult quail to take care of/bond with baby quail?

    You will have the best luck with an old hen, but as others have said, you can't force the bond. If you do put the chicks in with an old hen, make sure to watch them carefully to make sure the adult doesn't peck at and kill the chicks.

    Bumps on rescue quails' beaks for over 8 weeks

    I agree that those look like abrasions from running their beaks across wire.

    Adding in 2 or 3 more females?

    The ideal ratio is one male to five females. Your 3x6 pen is a good size for 6 birds. Adding them at night is the best way to go.

    Deformed feet in incubator!!

    You can make "shoes" out of painter's tape. Gently tape the toes straight and leave the tape on for 12-24 hours. If they're going to get better, they'll get better in that short a time.

    I'm guessing I have a bad roo

    Throat damage doesn't sound like quail on quail. I would guess either something sharp in the pen or rats.

    lost another quail :(

    I lived in the SF Bay area in the same house for over 50 years. I've been in my new place for 3 years now.

    lost another quail :(

    How far north in CA are you? There was a place in Sebastopol that sold them (I'm not sure if they still do), and I'm just 25 miles from the CA border.

    lost another quail :(

    Celadons aren't that rare. Myshire has a good line. After someone vandalized my greenhouse and wiped out my celadon line, I ordered some from Zack. My old line produced about 80%, so about 80% of the hens would lay celadon, the rest would lay speckled eggs. The line from Myshire has...

    lost another quail :(

    I'm pretty wary of shipping chicks. I've never done it, personally, but there are people who do. What is the post office like where you live? I wouldn't trust the post office here with a box of bricks.
