    Coturnix Quail Basics- Information and Pictures Galore

    Just wondering since more ppl see this thread if anyone can help me. My 6 week old coturnix rooster has had a puffed up back of the head and neck/chest area. I'm wondering if it's just him puffing his feathers up because he's in heat or what since he has started crowing this past week. He's been...

    Okaaaay so....whole new range of problems. I finally had chicks hatch today but only 5 of the 23 made it due to being upside down and unable to get out of their shells (some were just yolks though). So these chicks have kind of become a nightmare they are pecking each other trying to kill each...

    I emailed him no reply yet. I candled several and the entire egg was in shadow on all of them. I also put them up to my ear and could hear and feel movement and one even chirped!

    I can't really tell what my humidity is because the incubator's hydrometer is always telling the wrong humidity (switches back and forth between percentages constantly). I have a little giant still air incubator and I've heard others have had a problem with this as well but I just do the best I...

    They were all looking great before they went into lock down I culled one that had never developed at all.I've even seen tiny movements from different ones the past day or two. I'm curious what the exact days are that everyone's have hatched and if I can still have hope for them
