I have 3 bobwhite - 2 male, 1 female. The female chose a male and they are paired off in their own cage leaving my one male alone. We are getting 24 dozen eggs to hatch in a few weeks. We plan on keeping only females.
How long do I have to keep the males separate for the breeding season - is it til the fall?
Can I let the male quail live with the babies, or how soon can I introduce some of the new ones to him? I know he is quite lonely despite the holding time we do give him.
