    Celadon Genetics

    Hey all, Quail question! I am hatching a few coturnix with the celadon (ce) gene currently. They are all hatching out of blue CE eggs. I am aware that not all quail that hatch from a blue egg will lay blue. I know the bird has to have two copies (one from mom and one from dad?) of the CE gene...

    Housing Red Golden Pheasants with Coturnix in smaller coop

    Hi, I'm very interested in getting one Red Gold Pheasant pair, mostly to enjoy having such a beautiful, colorful bird around. From what I've read, most people say housing pheasants and Coturnix quail together generally works out fine- same feed, same family, generally fairly docile. What I'm...

    Possible quail head injury?

    I’ve been raising coturnix quail and today I found one too weak to stand and I’m thinking she may have smacked her head on the wooden support beam in their cage. There’s no blood but her skull felt uneven under the skin and she’s obviously in distress. Do you guys think it’s just a head injury...

    Hello all! I just hatched four coturnix quail and I am wondering what breeds they are. When I got the eggs I was told that there were three different kinds of coturnix quail eggs in the box. The man said that there was standard coturnix, tuxedo, and one other that I don't remember. I hatched...

    Bringing Coturnix Quail Chicks Home

    Hi guys! After my last failure of an incubation, we decided we would go ahead and buy some day old chicks of a fairly local breeder. But the thing is, they live about 20 minutes away and my dad was concerned about this: Would the chicks be alright in a 22C car for 30 minutes on the ride home...

    The power strip the incubator was plugged into lost power for up to 9 hours after the eggs were in there for 12 hours already; the incubator has been running on that strip for about 3 weeks already and it happened while I was asleep so I wasn't expecting this at all and don't know how long it...

    Quail Sound Translation?

    My coturnix quail has been sick with coccidiosis, so she’s been quarantined and I’ve been treating everyone with Corid. She’s finally better but today she’s been making this weird noise at the other birds that she’s never made before. What could it mean?
