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.
My quail are 3 weeks old. I plan on keeping them outside in a rabbit hutch that’s completely sealed off with bubble wrap. It also has a large tarp over it for additional protection.
I can’t put a heating lamp inside but I can use Christmas lights. There is also plenty of straw and old cloth for...
Hi there! I’m new to raising quail. Today I got 8 quail chicks. I’m keeping them in a 2 story rabbit hutch. There is a little ramp for them to go down to the first floor, but for now I’m keeping them only on the second floor.
Is this space big enough for 8 quail chicks?
So let me tell you the reason I am asking this very question... our neighbors were complaining about are RIR Rooster and how it was interrupting them during unsociable hours (evening, early morning) because of it loudness of his crow and to be quite frankly it did annoy me a little, so sadly we...
Hi, I have no experience with owning birds of any sort, but I would like to buy two or three quail hens for a source of eggs. The thing is, I have plans to move out of my parent's house and live full time in a van/ mobile home. I've heard that moving around can be stressful for quails, and I...
Hello everyone! I just joined, so here's some info about myself!
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
Yep, I am totally new to chickens/quails! I am more interested in quails though, as I live in Singapore and space is limited.
(2) How many chickens (quails in this...
Preferably minimum of 4 weeks old. I am in the New York area 11214, but willing to travel. Message me if you have any available. I would like to add to my flock without the arduous process of raising them. Hatching Texas A&M at the moment and have 9 Pharaoh's around 4 weeks old. Thanks.
one of my chicks has an air bubble on its neck. The skin is pretty thin and it’s kinda yellow if you look through it, kinda like it’s food. I thought of puncturing it but if it’s the crop that would be bad. Also, it’s chest skin is pretty thin and it has been opening its mouth kinda as if it was...
I have 3 quails and today there was 2 butcher birds chasing them up and down their run. Only one went up into its coop but I was lucky enough to scare the birds away before any damage was done. I put an extra barrier of wire sloping out to the birds can’t get to them but I’m still worried about...
A few days ago I received 3 female quail which I very highly suspect one is a male! I’ve never owned or raised quails so forgive me if some of my questions seem silly!
We were told they will be fine in a small chicken coop so we purchased one that has a lockable hutch that has a ramp going into...
Hello everyone, I just signed up because I need your help.
I have had a first go at incubating quail eggs! So far 5 have hatched out of 20, they are all healthy except for one day started hatching on day 19 and couldn’t get out of the shell two days later, it was completely open but couldn’t get...
Hi everybody,
I used to have a large tank for my buttons that I divided in two when they got to 6 weeks, but it was a hassle to haul around when I needed to so I resold it to a friend. I got an idea from a Facebook group to get a large guinea pig cage for them instead, but I did not realise...
Hi there,
I wasn't able to upload a video, but I have two male button quails that have been chasing after one of the female quails today. One of them (the original chasing quail, before the other one joined in) seemed to be attempting to peck at her. My quails, most likely two males and three...
I grew up in the city of Chicago - truly in the city, not the suburbs and claiming I was from Chicago (that's a bit of a Chicagoan thing). Chicago's laws are very lenient on livestock and poultry - there's not much in Chicago's municipal code regarding livestock and poultry. However, having...
