I still can believe my chukars are still laying. I know there not fertile. Hope they stop soon. I don't know what to do with all this eggs. I tired feeding them back to them, but it seems a lot to give them. Hopefully with cold front they'll stop. Temp is going to drop to low 60's for highs. You...
I am in need of 4 valley female quail for this fall. If anyone has any close to Las Vegas, NV or can ship. Were still up in upper 90's. But should start to cool off soon.
Thanks
Do any of you have Valley quail chicks? I just hatch a small batch and ended up with all males except one. so was hoping to buy some eggs or 3 hens chicks. I know it's late for eggs and maybe way to hot to ship live chicks. Maybe some can save me a few hens and ship this fall?
Thanks

I have one chick (valley quail) that hatched yesterday and seem to be doing good until a hour ago. He's laying on his side and every time I flip him over, he rolls back to his side or back. He has one eye close and makes me think he had a seizure of some type. I gave him some water and he drank...
I just set my eggs lastnight for lock down and no more than 24 hrs later one's walking around. Am very surprised. I had locked down 6 chukar 2 days before and not even a chip yet.
This all new to me, but what does everyone use? I need it for chukar and rn pheasants. Am not saying they have worms but from reading on here it should be done once a year.
Found this stuff but sure it's the right stuff. Thanks for your help.

This might be the wrong for it but couple questions. finally have pheasant and chukar eggs to put in the incubator. I have heard to use forced air circulating and at the same time do not for pheasants and chukar. Which way is best? I have Little Giant 9200 with forced air, that can be removed. I...

Thanks
