I bought 10 coturnix quail in June, and ended up with 4 hens and 6 roos. The hens started laying last week, but I'm disappointed in their yolk color. I'm sure it's because I'm feeding Startena, along with oyster shells. They need something else in their diet to get the color- any suggestions? I don't have a lawn for grass, but can possibly feed some weeds. I also have a bunch of apple trees, but that's a seasonal treat. Has anybody tried the omega 3 boosters for chickens? Any other ideas?
