My husband loved going there to ask Heather questions. He wasn't really into my birds other than building for me and handing me money and picking up feed. He was always so excited to talk to her so he had some input when I needed something, so until he died I let her be hIS chicken connection.
I had a few baby quail here that I ended up taking to the auction this morning. Took some buckets, but they weren't taking any more items, just animals, sooo. Ends up I have talked to Taylor a few times. HI TAYLOR!! LOL I gave the buckets to his friend. Every time I move something in the garage those darn thing fell on me. Maybe now I can finally start getting rid of a few things. Hard though, because a lot out there is Bill's and I refuse to give up any of his things.
Didn't do great with the quail, but better than I though. Got my usual price for week olds for them, although they were 2 weeks and a little over. Only sold 6 though. I kept the biggest ones. Then I spent the money. Not good. Could have been more feed money. I bought a little spangled hen that I think is an OEGB. The roo went for more than I had with me, so I didn't get him. Plus I end up with roos all the time anyway, so I'm going to put her in with Makayla's black birchen MG and see what I egt, just for the heck of it.
Got home to tke quail out of the bator, only had the 8 when I left, but there are 9 now, so I stuck the wet ne bacl in the bator and hope he calls out some more. LOL I need to check the other incubaors and see what I have going into lockdown. Sure hope I get something worth keeping or selling or trading.
Kim,
I have 11 A & Ms out so far & will leave them alone for the day at least to see if more come out. Are the ones you are selling at 2 weeks old the small Courturnix brown ones?
Yes. Two small hatches and I kept the biggest female.
I took Dakotah out for a few hours to play some games and wait for midnight for the new Gears of War game. Got home and checked on my big whopping 9 chicks that hatched out of like 60 eggs and was going to clean out the hatcher and there's another chick in there. I'm leaving them until I wake up and if there are no more I have more eggs for lockdown, so I'll have to decide by then if I pull them or just add the chicken eggs.
Quail didn't go for much, but I got as much for chicks a coupleof weeks old as they did for full grown. Only sold 6 though.
