Just found these so my apologies for not answering. The quail hatched well under the hens and the bantam chicks taught them to eat. I have my quail next to the chickens and have never had an issue with diseases with either of them. I understand the issue of mixing the two species but it has worked for me. I also take away any chicken eggs as they are so much larger than the quail eggs.
