    Male button quail question...

    Hey! It's been so long since I've been on here! In September one of my button quail pairs hatched out a single baby (the others pipped and died ). In short, they were terrible parents and I ended up raising him. I'm pretty sure he is as tame as a button quail can be and I love him to death...

    Moving Quail with eggs

    This quail has laid eggs before they hatched in the aviary and chicks were killed by other quails. I tried moving one of my other quails who laid eggs a couple weeks ago but she had a heart attack and died while being moved. How do I move a quail with her eggs into a separate cage safely?

    First Eggs QUAILS

    So yesterday I received 2 lovely but small quails eggs for the first time! So far today, I still haven't received any. Is it normal for Japanese quails to miss a day after their first egg? If so, is it just one day or can it last a while? Thanks :)

    Introduction!

    (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I am new to chickens. I started in August with chicks that were a week old. I grew them out and they're now about 14 weeks old. In September I hatched out some quails and silkies in the incubator. They hatched on about September 23rd...

    Target weight loss for quail?

    I’ve been trying to find the target weight loss for incubating quail eggs but can’t find a set answer, just what people use themselves. I’m still learning to navigate the site so maybe I’m just not looking right. So what’s the target weight loss for quails, total and weekly? I’ve only...

    HELP please! Brooder is not ready!

    Yes, I know, you are supposed to have the brooder up and running before the baby hatches, but I do not feel safe having a 250 watt heat lamp hovering over my baby and I am worried about the heating pad's thermostat breaking and starting a fire. Sounds like I'm quite worrisome huh? Well, I am...

    Help with coturnix quails?

    So I have two quails that I'm not 100% sure about the genders of. I've suspected that my oldest is male because of the noises he's making. (They're only 1 day apart lol). I'm not sure about the younger one but since its quieter and calmer we think it's probably a girl. However, the male has been...
