Someone must have sold me broken chickens

I told you that you need to provide supplemental lighting if you want them to lay through the winter after their first winter.

I have disagreements with your state laws and I don't call them retarded.

You can though I won't get upset.
What are the requirements for a permit? Do they make it difficult to obtain one?

I know Bob...just kidding you a bit.

Why don’t they allow quail? Even housed ones? Are they afraid they will affect native species?

You have to apply for a permit, free for hobby possession and eating or $50 if you want to be able to give away or sell them.

After applying, the game warden must inspect your premises (cages, etc.) before the permit gets approved. They prefer you source your quail or eggs from inside the state as the G&F has stricter testing rules for import into the state than does the agriculture department for other types of poultry.

When I raised pheasants, the game warden that I dealt with bent over backwards to help me in any way he could.

They allow them but you have to have a permit and follow their rules and regulations. The WY G&F are very protective of native species.
