Two quick questions for the group
Setting up breeding groups with young quail I hatched... Each cage has 15 hens 3 roosters, Have 7 groups...
Hens just starting to lay,
1) So far none of the eggs have hatched, (cause? (Roosters inactive due to season?)
2) noticing a few with bloody (pecked?) Heads (to crowded? Two many rooster in one cage?) (When I see one with lots of head wound, I just process them for dinner) Is it true that if I separate into a separate cage the other quail will still pick on them when I return them to the group.... (best jus the .. even after no broken skin (like they would do if they saw a bug on another
