Yes, Tabasco Jack raises Quail. I think Brucifer was planning on raising them, too.

Welcome to the thread. It has been a little slow because of the Holidays, but hopefully it will pick up!
 
Hope everyone had a great Christmas and will have a safe and great new year as well. We finally have a car again. Thank goodness trying to get rides everywhere was becoming tedious. Most of my chickens are doing great but there are a couple of older ISA hens that seem to be thinning l don't expect them to make it through the winter. I have them separated because the roos seem to pound on them relentlessly. Most likely because they are growing week. It is sad because I know that they only live so long because of the way they are breed and used
When I first got them though I didn't know any better. Chickens were chickens I didn't know that some loved longer then others because of the way they were bred. I know so much more now. A lot of my knowledge came from this site I would read for hours. I also bought quite a few books and read them cover to cover.I m grateful for all of you on the Georgia State thread. Thanks for being there.

Yes, I read that about them, also. I always hate losing an animal. That same thing is true about lots of those sex link type of chickens. Lay and lay lots of eggs, and then die early.
 
I am having great success for selling my hatching eggs! I also have already sold 18 of my 25 Christmas Eve chicks! That add has only been on Craigslist for going on 3 days! Maybe I should hatch some more!

How much are they selling for?

They are just mixes, so $3 each. I should raise my price since everyone else is selling their chicks for $5. Plus, mine come from my great colored eggs!

Oh, wait.....were you talking about chicks or hatching eggs? Right now I am selling hatching eggs for $10 for the first dozen and $5 for each additional dozen. But, I am thinking of going up.

People are selling mixed chicks for $5 each? I've paid that much for silkies, showgirls, and other common purebred chicks. Mixes $3 sounds right to me. But I might just be cheep (ha!).
