    Jumbo coturnix in yolo county CA

    Howdy! I've been hatching jumbo coturnix to build up my flock, but we accidentally hatched too many for our current space. I have 8 4week old birds (2 males 6 females) and 10 3day old unsexed chicks. I was thinking $10-15 for the sexed birds and maybe $2-3 unsexed?

    How many quail do I need for meat?

    Hi everyone! I’ve been keeping chickens a little over a year and recently I’ve been thinking about keeping quail also. Not together…separate housing. I know the basics of care, but my question is how many do I need for a family of 3? How should I start? It would be okay if we had extra, I could...

    Jumbo Coturnix sexing

    Hey guys! I just got some jumbo coturnix. The person who I bought them from said that jumbos cannot be sexed. They are white… so obviously these cannot be feather sexed. But can’t they be vent sexed? I have had only standard but would imagine it’s the same?

    Jumbo runt rooster

    Just putting this out there... I keep jumbo Coturnix and made a bad pick for breeding stock. I picked these at 6 wks old around Halloween to be my winter breakfast egg layers and breeders come spring. One male didn’t keep growing like the other choices and I’ve eaten the options since. He's of...

    Found quail half dead gasping for air

    i just went out to feed my jumbo coturnix and found one on her side unable to walk gasping for air and covered in ants. Any clue what could have caused this? I went ahead and put her down since it seemed pretty obvious she wasn’t going to get better and it looked like an awful state to be in. Do...

    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...
