I don't think that I would want to start hatching quail as they would probably be like potato chips. I must admit that last year I was sorely tempted to start raising Gambrels.

Got to go get my 22-250 out of the gun safe and stash it where I'll have quick access to it. A coyote has been strolling across the yard behind the chick coops for the last 3 days and I need to break him of that habit.

quail make excellent "hot wings" just split them in half and treat them as a wing. If you're into something that looks fancy, but is easy, gouda stuffed quail rolled in bacon is excellent.

I have been using this in my coop as a spray. It said it is for mosquitoes as well as mites. Good luck!

That is what I use too!

We released our quail two weeks ago (14 of them). They were "bob whites" and the first few days I could hear them. Nothing since.

Love your soaps and cupcakes! You have some talent there Saddina!

I agree, your soap is beautiful and your cupcakes looks adorable and delicious!

While pictures of food can look quite nice, I reserve pronouncing any food "beautiful" until it touches my tongue. That probably explains why I have been called everything a man could be called except twice to eat.

Taprock welcome to BYC and the Michigan thread. I am in St Ignace, so close by.

Jeff so sorry to hear about your troubles, hope you find some nice hens soon.

This is a picture of my oyster shell and granite grit dispensers, they fill from the top and the girls help themselves:

1muttsfan love the grit/shell dispensers! What size PVC are they?


The kids got 6 more 'Scovy ducklings on Thursday.

They now have 8, all puchaced with their own money.

Hope everyone is having a good Saturday!

Opa, 'yotes and 'coons are on the same page for me.

I hope to start with some contreaux in the near future.
