Not quite finished, waiting for paint to dry.

Nice quail hutch! How many will fit in it?

Morning everyone!

@Teila love Cuban pork and black beans (DH makes it for us). And food is always better when you can include things you've grown yourself!

@CapricornFarm have you raised quail before? @JaeG has me convinced they look like fun little things. Hope your upcoming hatch goes well.

@KDOGG331 thanks for sharing the photos! It looks like you (and is that your mom?) had a good time doing the horse & buggy ride.

Woke up super early (around 2:30) so my day will have to include a nap. Heard from my son last night, he's in Cheyenne now visiting with my mom & nephew then he'll be here Wednesday afternoon! Hope he's ready for lessons in Chicken Keeping 101

Yes, NFC, i had quail in TN! I hatched out shipped eggs and had a pretty good hatch. Then i used to hatch eggs and sell babies. I love those birds! More tame and calm than most chickens and quieter!

My sister painted and donated this along with 17 other paintings for a benefit for a friend that she works with. Last she looked it was at $100. All of her paintings went. Another went for $115. She got orders for 2 more of this one. She usually puts names in the heart, that’s why the plus is in it.

I was thinking 4 hens and a roo. It will have an upstairs dustbath with a ramp leading up to it. But since i ordered 25+ eggs i guess i will be building more....

Thanks!

I don't think they need as much room as chickens So I wondered about that.

And my early morning phone call has me pretty shaken up. Abnormal mammogram.
