Quail and chickens in brooder

[Ted88]

Hello all I have a question i am incubating quail and chicken eggs and wondering if I need separate brooders for the first stages of brooder or could I run a single brooder with the quail and chickens together also I have two breeds of chickens should I separate them all off into the different brooders or is this okay too put them together for the first while anyway thanks

Chickens grow much faster than quail since their size difference. I would try it out and eventually separate them.

Thanks for this I was assuming this was possible

Yeah! Just keep a close watch on them I'm sure they'll do fine. Farming is all about trying things out!

The quail are going to get trampled if you put them in with chicken chicks. They also need higher protein feed (28-30% game bird starter).
