Ok .. So ive been looking into raising coturnix quail ... i really like the white ones so thats what im gonna go with i think so here are my questions...
1) with the A&M breed do they make good meat and do they lay good sized/# of eggs for a quail?
2) this feed store near me carries them, should i buy them there or better off with buying from a breeder?
3) who here knows or is a breeder that can send me eggs?
4) do i need 2 different pens for males and females and only put them together for a little while to mate or keep them in the same pen at all times
5) what do you think a good # of birds would be to start my flock off ?
6) what kind of temperatures can they tolerate because i live in arizona and it occasionally gets up to the 120's ...?
7) on their cage it needs nothing more than a wire floor, food, water, drop bucket underneath, some kind of shelter, and ... what??
8) how long do they live ?
ok i think thats it for now any help would be greatly appreciated
