I'm new at raising quail and will be ordering about 20-30 hatchlings this spring.
I live in a urban setting and I plan to have an outside pin on my back deck so I can have easy access to them in an outside setting. (I want to raise them for eggs and meat)
(Eventually I will breed them but I'm feeling a bit over whelmed to even think about that right now).
How many separate pins will I need to keep problems to a minimum while raising them for meat and eggs? Since I will not have any control over how many males or females Ill get.
How should I go about separating the birds as to keep fighting and other unforeseen problems to a minimum?
How would you set things up and why?
