Free Ranging Quail Experiment
We have a large aviary 200sqft, but these are two boys I was contemplating culling due to having too many (hence the experiment). They have not had their wings clipped and no it’s actually been pretty easy to catch and locate them. One of them is really loud when he crows and they stick together. -

Free Ranging Quail Experiment
Hello, I’ve started letting two of my quail free range every day between 10am-4pm (to avoid prime hunting times for hawks, cats and owls). My two boys LOVE it. They hide in the tall grass and wander around pecking in the grass. It is a bit of work to round them up and catch them at the end of... -

Hi all, I’ve found lots of clever cute names for chicken and duck coops. Looking for some ideas for my quail coop! Thanks -

Quail and sheep
3 sides are 6’ concrete walls and the one open side has 1/2” hardware cloth 4’ tall. The top is 1” game bird netting but most of that is covered by tarps and shade cloth. Our whole property has 6’ concrete walls. -

Quail and sheep
It is completely enclosed. I originally made the area for the quail but realized this would also be a perfectly safe area for the 2 sheep at night. The quail have bushes and concrete blocks with hiding places. The house in the photo is something I made for the quails but they don’t like it... -

Quail and sheep
I can’t find anything on google about keeping quail with sheep. It would be about 30 quail and 2 miniature sheep in a 200sqft area (sheep would not be in there during the day as they would be grazing the grass, but would be in there from dusk to dawn). -

Lone quail chick
Just an update, got him 7 brothers and sisters. Most are slightly smaller than him (didn’t want him to get picked on) and a few are about the same size. He was scared of them at first but then eventually snuggled in with them. -

I have some more in the incubator but they still have a week and a half before they’ll hatch. -

Lone quail chick
I only had one chick survive out of my last batch 😢. What do I need to do so that he doesn’t feel so lonely? Will he be ok? Can I put one of my adult hens with him? -

Chick not growing
They’re from my first batch of fertilized eggs from my flock. Some of the eggs were a bit smaller yes. They’re Celadon’s so seem to be a bit of a mix of everything. I’m not sure if any of my hens qualify as a jumbo but there are some that seem slightly larger than my tuxedos and Italians. -

Chick not growing
These two quail hatched the same day, they’re over a week old and the little one doesn’t seem to be growing. Seems to be doing well overall, eating, drinking, alert... just not growing. Any suggestions? -

Egg Bound or Constipated quail?
Thank you, I brought her inside so she had easy access to everything she needs and she laid the most beautiful egg I have ever seen. I officially know this is only her second egg. Her first was so covered in calcium deposits that it looked white but this one is smooth and colorful. However there... -

Egg Bound or Constipated quail?
Only one of my quail is laying HUGE eggs every 3 days and I have a feeling it’s the same one that seemed to be struggling. Any suggestions for helping her lay them more easily? The others are laying daily. They have lots of light, calcium etc. only thing I can think of is that she’s... -

Egg Bound or Constipated quail?
she is Coturnix yes. She is in a ground pen. Basically aviary I guess because it’s tall, but access to the dirt and plants. I didn’t get a pic of the droppings but they were like a large ball slightly smaller than the size of a quarter. I tried squishing it in paper towel to see consistency and...
