California quail

what is the ratio of males to females I should have in my pen?

I use to raise these, and I bet there would be a lot of different opinions about ratio. I had 1 male to 3 females in a breeding pen. I had 12 pens at the time and always had a good hatch rate.

from pairs to 1:4 is most common for these.
