Good choice. Plus coturnix are big enough so you can eat your extra roos. You should see how big the James Marie Coturnix eggs are!

There's no way I am going to bother with eating the extras, lol. They wouldn't make one meal for a single person, let alone for a large family. I'll feed them back to the chooks (raw) or try to keep a bachelor pen.

I've never hatched/had pigeons, but I have been quite tempted. Maybe once the finances recover a tad from the new coop...

Yes, call them!

Pidgeons, now we are talking dumb! I had doves for a while.

My neighbour had some doves a while back. They ended up escaping and vanishing after a pit stop in our yard.

Really? Lots of people eat them. Or good raw for dogs as well.

Well, After lunch and putting the Milk Drinker in bed, I'm going to go to the hardware store to get some canning tongs. I have 40lbs of apples that we cooked down to sauce to can, and we have no canning tongs.

I'm just too lazy to go to the trouble of cooking one of those little bitty things. We can tear through a good sized chicken in a night.

But if you all had a couple it might be tasty! Just saying if you get 50% males. I am expecting those jumbos to be big if they hatch.

This was one of the escapee doves. I forget what year. 2014?

You are nasty!

Smuv,
Are you saying one has lost her footsies?

Big old fat stumps.

Somewhere between 4 and 6 months I THINK... I need to look back and see.
