    Nasal cheese

    Hello all, My old quail hen, Big Mama, has developed something that looks like canker, but in her nostril. One nostril looked enlarged today, so I took her out and gave it a good look. It was full of cheesy looking white stuff, no odor. I managed to dig it all out, at least what I could see...

    Paralyzed quail hen

    OK, thanks so much. I don't have a good pair of shears, but I have really good Felco pruners. Would they work?

    Paralyzed quail hen

    You are in Petaluma? I'm down here in San Francisco. Do they charge a lot for a necropsy? How long would you give her? I just made her a sling chair with a box and some fleece fabric. She seems to like it, and is eating really ravenously. What do you think is the best way to cull, if I...

    Paralyzed quail hen

    They get a 50/50 mix of Modesto Milling organic chick starter and MM layer, with all kinds of vegetables, fruits, mealworms (dry), sprouts, etc. A little ACV in the water. They all lay like crazy and look great. She lives inside with my blind hen, because she's small, and the other hens made...

    Paralyzed quail hen

    Help! My quail hen, Dottie, (picture in avatar) suddenly became paralyzed. She was fine, then she couldn't stand up. She can move her legs, but in spazzy way, and she can't stand. She can also use her wings to right herself if she falls over. She's eating and drinking, pooping and still...

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    Cool! I'm in SF, out near the beach. I'm going to need to rehome any boys. Do you know anyone who might want a tiny banty roo? I'm pretty sure there's a rooster ban in the east bay and down the peninsula.

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    Crushing people's dreams, one cockerel at a time. This made me laugh so hard, my coffee came out thru my nose. I'm thinking the last 2 are boys. When I woke up this morning, #4 was chasing #3 (Betty) all around. Of course. #4 (Bruce) is the smartest and most affectionate, and my favorite...

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    Eeeek! I hope at least 2 are girls!

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    I agree. I'm hoping #2 is a girl. When I woke up this morning, #4 was chasing #3 around. I'm pretty sure they're both boys.

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    I think you're right. I think nos. 3&4 are boys. I wrote this last night, and this morning, #4 was chasing #3 all around. I wonder is these tiny breeds mature faster? Hey, I see you're in N. Calif.! Me too! I'm in the Bay area. You?

    Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?

    Hello chicken peeps, I'm new to chickens (I have quail). My friend gave me some Serama x OEGB eggs, and I hatched 4 chicks. Can anyone tell me what sex they are, and the name of their colors? They are all 3 weeks old today.

    Chickens and quail?

    I can't add any more structures. I'm amazed that the landlady is letting me keep what I have, LOL. I can't push it. That's why I wanted to put them in with the quail.

    Chickens and quail?

    OK, thanks. I don't have any chickens, just the quail. They are in a pen on the ground, with an enclosed "coop" area. It would be easy to add a few perches in the coop and pen. I would also let the chicken out into the yard for exercise every day when I clean. But if it's not a good idea, I...

    Chickens and quail?

    Because of disease?

    Chickens and quail?

    Hi, Is it OK to keep a small, bantam hen in with my quail? I have heard that chickens can give quail diseases, but I would be hatching this chicken myself.

    Ugg. I really want to avoid that.

    Ammonia in deep litter

    Quail are too small to really disturb the litter that much. I take a 3 pronged hand rake and really move the litter around at least twice a week. Since the litter is mostly fairly coarse wood chips, it doesn't get compacted. It feels pretty springy. I know the stuff you mean: it's called...
