➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[el dorado quail]

Nutterbutters head looks better today but his eye is looking ultra sketch. Doing coconut oil with the veteracyn so its not cracking as it dries. He's eating and drinking (kind of mostly water out of a spoon when I hold him) so hopefully his poops are not bile colored bythe time i get home

i’m thinking that one will be a roux pharaoh aka “egyptian” due to size difference etc

I think it's a roux too! Definitely a hen. But if you have any dudes pop up they're super handy for sex-link crosses.

i had a male but when we took out last batch, i can’t remember if i kept or let him gothis one looks possible female but only about 2 weeks so could fool me!

Nooooo! Don't you hate that.

Both of my senior breeding males carry it (I have figured out) so they keep popping up *everywhere* in my stock. Not that I mind!

I am trying to breed a homozygous charcoal homozygous roux line, for crossing onto jumbos. The females in that part of my program are the biggest and most consistent egg layers, too. Some are getting crossed back to dad this go round, some to a son. I am pretty excited to see what I get next gen.

if my girls start laying consistently again, once i get this batch out of the grow-out cage, i may play around with a breeding group and try incubating a sex-link batch or a custom color batch before the end of the year??? i really want to replicate the falb fee tux again!
