Hello. I have a 6-week quail (rooster) that I notice a day ago that has a bump on top of his head and today when I checked he is swollen like a balloon around the neck and head. It feels like just air inside. He is moving normal I don't see him eating much. Normal poop, legs and wings are...
Hello,
I've recently acquired 2 quails and they're living together, male and female, they were from different shops so this is their first introduction to each other, yesterday i noticed he started pecking and pulling her toes out from under her, as if he's found some sort of worm. He does the...
I have a very big flock of about 50 chickens. I've got some big hens like sulmtaler, lakenfelder and medium sized ones like lohmanns. They live together with a lot of bantams for example sebrights and dwarf cochins. My question is - since my very large run would be quail safe (double close...

BUT...

So I've recently found this dog kennel (picture isn't mine) and I think it's pretty big and maybe could be used for other birds? I'm thinking maybe a trio of Japanese quails or just a brooding area for birds? If anyone comes up with what I can use this for I'd really appreciate it!! :love
Hello Quail Peoples!
I am looking to transition my quailies to an outdoor aviary set up but don't really know where to start. They have been living in a large stacking dog kennel situation (think three Great Dane-sized kennels) on cloroplast litter trays and horse stall pellets- 4 quails to...
Hi everyone,
Excuse me for my English since I'm an Egyptian whose native language is Arabic.
So one of my new hatched quails (6 or 7 days old) is closing one eye totally, i forced it to open its eye and put some anti-inflammatory eye-drops inside of it. It also has a neck sprain as shown in the...
Hey everyone! Not sure if anyone wants to see, but I love watching step by steps of other people's set up, so I thought I'd post my aviary build for anyone that's interested :)
It's a slow process as work and lockdown restrictions mean time and resources are limited, but hopefully we'll be able...
Just for those of you who are thinking of keeping adult egg-laying coturnix quail here's exactly what I do...
It work well for me and I have never had any serious problems.
I keep 13 quails outside in an aviary: 12 females and one male. I hatched all of them so they are quite friendly and eat...
So my quails leg accidentally got stepped on when we were putting them back in their cage for the day (it’s a long complicated story) but now he can’t walk and he’s moving himself around with his head and kind of dragging his body, we were going to put him down but he seems pretty content, he...
Hi. My I have 3 female cortunix quails for a bit information, and I‘ve never seen them fight each other like this. It isn’t fighting really, because one of them runs around the cage away from the other which keeps pecking it. I don’t know what to do, does anybody know anything on this? I don’t...
Hi. I have three female coturnix quails, and recently me and my dad had some leftover watermelon and so we gave it to them. We gave some more, and once we left the cage alone they started eating both the seeds and the watermelon. Except, now they have dried up red watermelon juice on their...

Hey folks!
Long time no post. I'm sure we can all agree; Life gets out of hand sometimes...
I digress... I've returned today with a crazy concept I plan to implement myself soon. I figured it would be a great idea to share the idea with this...
