    About to jump in

    We have chickens and love them. They are quirky and provide eggs, which we love! I hunt and really enjoy eating quail, so thinking about raising Bobwhites for meat. I thought I would build a 3 compartment hutch. One would be for my breeders and the other two for the meat birds. There is a...
