hello every
Am looking at getting some bobwhite quail next fall (this spring and summer building the pen/flight aviary) the only reason am looking at getting bobwhite is that every other quail is illegal in my province and turns out bobwhite is the only one allowed with out a permit needed. (i phoned my CO and they told me the law states only bobwhite quail can be raised) but am looking at seeing how many square feet they need per bird i want a lot of room for them (i plan on only keeping the females or hens for the eggs and then butchering the males after 16 weeks or so) i also plan to raise chuckars (and the guy who sells quail also sells chuckars) can these two birds be raised together? any tips would be helpful.
