A new coop is on my list also. I just built a hoop coop that was fast, easy, & somewhat cheap. In getting ready to start another. As far as saving post. Can't you just bookmark them?

:0 I enjoy nibbling the legs & wings. They slide right out of their skin. Then just nip the outer part of the wing, head, & bottom of the legs off. Sick your finger in & pull the guts out. Put it in the bowl & your done.

Agreed I did a several birds at a time but would say it takes less then 5 minutes to do 5 birds at one time. Not counting wrapping, freezing, setup, & tear down.

It isn't a good idea to keep two males together. 4 males would probably be OK but more is better. They will all mate each other but only having two, one will over due it to the other killing him. Quail have a covey & they are dedicated to their male. They will choose if allowed to but they...

Ducky I sent you a PM.

Jumbo are usually more tame. Not all the birds you see advertised as jumbo are actually jumbo tho.

Nice

As I've researched line breeding & agree with it I also agree that it is likely that it does reduce the immunity system. Also sheltering them as we do reduces immunity systems. However I'm not willing to put my birds at risk to start the mutation that I won't benefit from. It takes centuries for...

This is where my biggest disagreement comes from. Not only do you practice bad husbandry but you encourage it & even recommend it. I searched long & hard for this thread last night because this matter was discussed civilly in it. I was one of the people that thought that biosecurity was just a...

Or don't get insulted since you don't really know most of these people. ;) By all means ask any questions. That's why I'm here is to answer any questions that I can. I do tend to be blunt but I don't try to be offensive.

Hosspak My post wasn't directed to you. As you can see there is much more then stuff you said in there. It comes from seeing these same comments over & over. Next to perfect hatches for me were about 90% most of the time. To get this yourself I'm not sure but things important to me was gathering...

That is senseless logic. I got my chickens from the hatchery as day olds. Shipped to my post office that I picked up. No chickens had been on my place for about two years before I got the day olds. My quail I had eggs delivered to my door & hatched. My quail were quite healthy. Several...

Lobzi Please don't share your birds with anyone. After all the issues that we have tried to warn about that has been shown with picture after picture on this forum. There is already all kinds of crap that we have to test chickens for that gets returned to or bodies so even of quail did reach...

Why would you put them together without an answer to your question?

I'd suggest moving the chickens far from your quail. Chickens carry disease that don't show up in them but will kill your quail. I've housed then together with no ill affect but have seen others report great loss from this. Just because you don't have a problem today doesn't mean you won't...
