    Hey y'all!! How's it going? I know I disappeared for awhile but I'm a teacher so I've been swamped with the teaching life. First year working in middle school so it was a big adjustment. :rolleyes: The math milestone is tomorrow so I'm finally free! Happy to report all chickens are alive. No...

    Thanks for advice everyone. I feel much better. I've also had ten new quail girls for about a week now. They are close to laying age. So cute and quiet.

    So I've had the two new chickens in there for a week. It was okay at first. They were irritated but the two Easter eggers were too fast for them to get to them. Today, I did notice feather picking has started. I saw a little dot of bare skin. Its really only one hen that they are picking on...

    My New Quail Adventure

    So, I love having chickens. I like the small number of chickens that I have and don't feel like pushing it with the laws for my city. I started thinking about keeping quail. I used to keep small birds as a child. I didn't know if I could handle a gamebird. Turns out, quail are a super easy for...

    When I was a kid, I always wanted a farm. Well, life got in the way so I started focusing on the main career related goals. It wasn't until my dad's tragic passing, that happen this past Christmas Eve. that I finally decided that I needed some outdoor therapy. I feel like anything can be cured...

    My sister has three blueberry trees so maybe you can get some when the later two are ripe. :) It was a fairly easy class! I even talked to the guy about coming to my school to present.

    But I don't want to! I guess I could clean the house. I do need to bake a blueberry cheesecake so I can use these blueberries that I got form my sister's yard. Looks like a cool project you got going on there. I like the colors! I'm going to an egg candeling class tomorrow. Any tips? Have...

    I'm glad I'm not the only one tired of the rain. :barnie I luckily finished my quail pen yesterday but would have been finished a few days before if it wasn't for all this rain! I also need to clean my chicken coop but I'm waiting for a dry day to do it. I also got two chickens from...

    So this Georgia forum must have magical powers because every time I post about a chicken not laying yet, it lays. We now have all three laying. I guess the biggest girl was a late bloomer. Or the smaller ones were early. Either way, I'm glad. Still miss my favorite, kazooie. @Tabasco Jack I...

    Where are you located? Thank you for all the info! I will probably show you some picks of the quail pen once I finish building it. Just picked up materials today. I do need to purchase another dog crate. I have two but one is a special one for my crazy husky pit. The other I actually need...

    So cute! Color doesn't matter to me. I was more worried about nature. Glad to know I'm not overthinking! I don't want to hurt my little crew with nasty diseases that are preventable. I trust a chicken from y'all more than a stranger on Craigslist because I know the heath of your birds matters...

    YO GEORGIANS! :)

    Okay so now that I've thoroughly read the information about introducing new chickens to a flock, I'm worried about buying these chickens. Only because I don't have the space to quarantine for a month ( I read a month is best). We're getting our garage converted soon and our newly purchased barn...

    You're so far from me but that's a great price. Wish I could but I'll probably be using a near by source to appease my bf. He won't be up for the drive. In Ga heat, at what age do quail chicks go outside?

    Review by '' on item 'Orpington'

    I never had chickens before I got my Buffs but I couldn't have any other breed! They are hilarious. Quiet, which is a huge plus for me. They are big on greeting you and following you around. Very social and make the cutest coo sounds. I don't have children but I think it's a great bird to have...

    I'm very hooked! I can't forget that taste. I love baking from scratch so I'm excited to start baking with the eggs too. I use to season my eggs heavy but I see that I don't have to do that with fresh eggs. I'm somehow hooked to the idea of quail too. I just drew up a plan to make a $50 quail...

    @brucifer I'm going to morrow tomorrow to meet up with the guy to get two chickens. Wish me luck! So last night I tasted the eggs for the first time. We had 11 eggs so I felt it was time. It was amazing. I actually never had fresh eggs before but only heard about the difference. I'm hooked. The...

    I am a little too young to make the technical errors that I have made with this website. I somehow replied within a quote. Haha
