Hi all! Been lurking here for a while now trying to learn all I can about raising quail. I have 9 coturnix that turned 1 month old today! For the most part they seem to be doing fine but a few of them have not developed feathers on their backs. I saw one that started developing feathers on the back, but now that it's been a week, it's still mostly just the pokey part of the feather, not the soft part. My question is, is that normal? Semi-normal? They are all eating and drinking fine. If it's not normal, does anyone have a clue what they are lacking? I've searched the site and can not find any threads regarding feathers not developing.
