➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

Even my guineas who are finicky about foods they were not raised on go crazy for BOSS.
Even my pheasants won't eat BOSS , anymore....when I started feeding the white hearts, they wouldn't eat the BOSS, just look at me like I was crazy for trying to feed'em sunflower seeds with hulls. :gig
 
This is how we roost! :) was just out making the 'rounds'. Got a coon problem again...so checking traps and checking on my birds. Small groups in a circle, just like they would if in the wild.

So I went out to do my night time “tuck my birds in for the night” check and found my young, Grau Fee celadon hen dead :-( She laid beautiful blue eggs with coppery brown spots. She was the only hen Celadon I hatched from my @Nabiki eggs too. :-( It looked like a broken neck…so very 😔

Then I checked on my other hens in the other coop and found the hugest quail egg I’ve ever seen. None of my hens are Jumbos, they’re all pretty little except one Pansy and one Falb Fee…and I can’t imagine either one being able to lay something so ginormous! I kind of don’t want to open it but I kind of wanna see if there are 3 yolks!

I want to give you an emoji, but I'm not sure which one. I'm sad for your Grau Fee celadon, but I'm happy for your huge egg and I also want to laugh about the 3 yolks.

😢😃🤣

I know! This was exactly my emotional rollercoaster when I was out there! 😆 I was super sad, super shocked and happy, and super curious all at the same time 😆 It dwarfs everything in my egg basket 😂 I wish I knew who did it! Must be the dried cricket snacks 😆
