    Raising a Bobwhite with Coturnix??

    Asking for one more bit of advice since I believe Little Bob is in our family to stay at this point... Out of our 12 Coturnix chicks, we have 3 females and 2 males left.

    Raising a Bobwhite with Coturnix??

    Hi! I have a new batch of baby corturnix, mixed colors about 2 weeks old in the brooder box. I picked them up about 48 hrs ago from a farm. There are 12. The woman said one was a runt so she threw in an extra to have 13 incase the runt didn't do well. But after close inspection and watching...
