I hit the sale up yesterday, and bought 8 coturnix. I had planned to pull the hens out and place them with my current jumbo roo and jumbo golden hen. I ended up with five roos and three hens. Fine by me, as I'll just sell the males off at the next auction. Well, after checking everything out, I think I'll only put one hen under my current roo, and keep two with one of the new roos. I ended up getting two brown hens and a red golden tibettan hen. There are two tibettan roos and two tuxedo roos. I'll probably keep the largest tibettan roo and put the tibettan hen and smallest brown roo in with him. The largest brown hen will go with my jumbo pair, provided that she makes the weight cut (I think she will, she's fairly hefty). So, instead of one pen of meat birds, I will now have a meat pen and a "pretty pen".
