I'm really looking at adding a few coturnix. I'd like to have some regular group cages but I'd also like to have individual hen cages to single breed some hens for selective breeding and making sure I know who the parents are of eggs.
Group mating is the rule for coturnix but I was wondering if anyone had a few small roll outs to have single hens and rotate a roo in every couple days for fertility? I know they are high gear breeders so I was thinking maybe roo in every third day or something.
Some of the cages available look nice but not so much the price! At least not for me when I can build something workable, at least to start. I could always invest later if I build up.
Thanks!
