You sound like me when Ravyn's showing off her Calls


Sloped floors? Why slo... Oh! Like a rollaway nest, right?


I've never had one at all, nor their eggs... Be easier to decide if I want to go to the trouble of figuring out where I'd put them and making quarters for them if I knew anyone in the house liked them!

I'm worse around Rav's calls... Just ask her, lol.... Last time she showed me Lady Grey I somehow ended up on craigslist with "call ducks for sale" in the search box... Luckily I snapped out of my trance after I remembered I don't have adequate housing.
Call ducks are just too cute for our own good!

I set no less than 16 so far no more than 42

Cant wait to hatch 120

That doesn't seem like many . but then you think about housing . I 'm going to set 120 chicken eggs next set . won't get that many but I'll set as many as I get . lot of chickens need gone before the hatch though. Going to be interesting to see how it goes .

Cuz you guaranteed the guys wouldn't miss seeing that quail...

couldn't get the little booger to hold still stretched out in my hand.

You need a license to raise Bobs since they are a Native species to the US. You can release on your own land but if you release on public land, you need a permit for that too.

Bobs are a lot of work. I did it for about a decade and I am so tired of quail. LOL. Bobs are definitely a better hunting bird but if you just want to eat quail, raise Coturnix. They can be dressed and ready for the table at 8 weeks of age.

We considered bobs, but have mostly decided against them because of the reasons you state.

One of my little 10-day old cots flew out of the brooder this morning while I was changing the pee-pad. I think it surprised itself so much, it just sat still where it landed, long enough for me to grab it. I think the thing is 14" deep and he cleared the side with no problem!
