I have a backyard flock of chickens that are fenced in with two 100ft Premier1 PoultryNet fences put together. After a few months, I've had no predator issues and still have all 20+ laying hens even with leaving the door of the movable coop (ChickShaw) open every night.
We love all the chicken...
Hi all,
I am new to the forum and new to birdkeeping as a whole.
I have kept and bred dogs, reptiles, and invertebrates for many years.
In about a week, I will be receiving 12 Jumbo Coturnix quail chicks (aged 1–10 days)
I've prepared a two-tier hutch that can accommodate 28 adult birds...
Hello,
This is my first time hatching out a lot of quail. I had one that fell into its water.
The dish the water is in is a very low dish so they don’t drown.
But one fell into it and got wet. It was placed in an incubator to warm up again and it seemed to be doing fine until I saw its...
So, we have 4 ten week old quail in a cage and 4 five week old quail in a different cage.
Only one of the ten week old quail is crowing and none are laying and I'm kind of confused because they've had light on consistently for 2 weeks now.
Also, the crowing one is obsessively watching the...
Hey all! Was wondering if I could I have some help sexing my chicks, they are around 6wk old now! (No 1 has a crooked neck but fighting fit otherwise) thank you in advance 😊
I am planing on turning a 8x8 ft shed into a coop for my 8 chickens. We had talked about getting quail could I turn a 3x7 foot and about two feet high part of the coop into a quail cage or would it be to close due to diseases?
I have four quail who are about 18 months old. They are housed in a hutch I built for them from wood and hardware cloth inside in an outdoor enclosure within the house.
I'm looking to sell them with their 3 feeders, two waterers, and several weeks worth of feed. I'm looking for $40, but will...
Normal embryonic development in coturnix quail eggs Days 0-12 and Day 17. Days 1-2 are quitters. Day 17 may not be to scale, but all other pictures should be relative to one another.
I have a 3 day old quail chick that had a tough hatch.
1st night it was very lethargic and shaky, swollen eyes and gagging, raspy (clicking?) and shaking head constantly. I fed quail egg yolk and manuka honey water from drops on my knuckle and the chick improved massively within 15m...
Hi,
We have 4 six-week old coturnix quail that I was pretty sure were male, but yesterday when my brother and I went out to check on them two of them were missing their head feathers and another one looked like it may have lost a few, but not too many.
If you all could just give me your opinion...

Hello, this is my winter quail pen and as you can see, there is light shining down that is my artificial light and that will make the quail continuously lay eggs. I also have a heat lamp so they’re warm and they’re comfortable and as you can see in the picture above they all love it. They’re all...
