I'm building a large aviary for my new flock of coturnix quail. I'm doing a brooding experiment, having my quail hatched by another farmer, and taking them "under my wing". When should I have the newbies move into the aviary? I'm doing a survival of the fittest type beginning, with a hands off...
Hi, i have 1 male and 4 female cotournix quails, they have stopped laying eggs completely due to winters approaching... i am unable to provide them with light 12hrs a day but i try to.
are there any other way that from which quails can start laying again... maybe change in diet or something.

My quail have been laying eggs for awhile now, I noticed one acting broody and sitting on her eggs so I decided to leave her some. There were two. They were there for a couple days, one morning I checked, they were still there then I checked a couple hours later and they were gone. Without a...
One of my quails, the one that started laying second on May 30. So 3 weeks of laying and she just stopped. She hasn’t been laying for 3-4 days. We started putting play sand in the coop instead of aspen shavings, it’s way easier to clean this way and other people have used it in the past with...
Hi guys. So I’m incubating quail eggs at 40-45% humidity, temp 99.5. It’s the fourth day of incubation and 2 of my eggs were partially caved in (but no leakage). The damage was too severe to let them stay in there, as they might rot or infect other eggs, so I removed them.
I cracked both of them...
I’ve read up on when quails are supposed to start laying, 6 weeks. Mine are 7-8 weeks and I have 3:1 quail ratio, I know that it’s supposed to be about 4:1 but they seem to be doing fine even though I only have 3 girls. Their hutch is outside and I bring them out on the grass in a playpen every...
I have been through such a long journey on finding what breed of quail I want, what colors, where to find them, what incubator to use, how many to get, what to get for the chicks and the list goes on. I had found a lovely place with amazing coturnix quails with crazy different colors, and...
I am currently looking to raise quail chicks or incubate quail eggs but I’m looking first for a seller near me. I live in Bucks County Pennsylvania. If anyone has any available please comment below.
We have four children and a few different breeds of chickens and quail. I had no idea I would fall in love with Quail like I have. We got some quail eggs from a very nice lady and hatch them out and ended up with a Texas A&M male, two Coturnix quail females and one Italian gold Manchurian...
So i bought 40 quail eggs from the supermarket and put them all in the incubator at a steady 37.6 c and 50% humidity and then went and searched if quail eggs from the supermarket are fertilized and google said no...

I am going to be raising quails for eggs and the person I will be buying from said it’s ok to keep the males and females together and as long as you rinse the eggs and put them in the fridge they will be fine for eating. Just want to make sure this is true. I’ve just read that with chickens...

Hey guys! Am a shiny new member and just wanted to say, thank you! I've been reading your stuff a lot over the last week and a half or so while incubating some quail eggs from the grocery store, and it has helped a lot. Four of them have developed and one is pipping this morning, so all of your...
