We sell 5 gallon buckets of Quail poop as an offering to neighborhood gardeners. (We ask for a $5/bucket donation or $10/3). Here's what we usually sell: 2 buckets of fresh droppings that can be scattered & tilled into the garden and one bucket of year old composted sludge to be mixed with...

4-5 females to 1 rooster for fertile egg production with less wear n tear on the hens. Or, 1 male to one female as pets or in breeder cages (as they mate as pairs in nature) aa they learn to love each other more gently. The addition of a second hen causes problems with competition in a breeding...

Pharoah (wild/brown) also have white meat (breasts). The A&M whites have white thigh meat, whereas the other wild type have "chicken wing" type dark meat. But with the size of quail legs, it's not much of a culinary concern. Doc - Tully River Jumbo Quail & Cage Co. Reading, PA

All I can add is that I do not believe the labeling or protien percentage has been changed comparing before/after the (nationwide) recognition of this occurrence. What I do know is Bill Gates "artificial egg" company went live and two weeks later, a company that sells chicken feed for egg...

Quail can become aggressive when they are in the mating mode. I notice that when I turn up the light cycle to get somew inter hatching eggs, the boys get excited and the girls get defensive. Springtime and in love makes for crazy emotions.

It's good to give your quail at least some of the winter off from laying. It's stressful to have to make eggs 24/7/365... they need a break. If you want eggs, consider moving a layer cage to an area with controlled lighting (14hrs/day), and rotating this birds out every month.

My Jumbo's lay 13 - 20g eggs. Standard are 9-11g

Be careful putting a salve or ointment on large cuts that may end up collecting coop dust and other gunk in the gel after the medicine wears off. Isolate and keep the afflicted in a clean warm cage Animals heal miraculously - that's nature for you.

Quail mate by grasping the skin on the back of the neck of the hen. Think rodeo cowboy. Once the skin tears, it tears badly. Try a product called Peck No More, an ointment that you place on the pecked area (back of neck) on all your birds. It will happen again, especially during breeding...

All of my jumbo are laying (wilds, white wing and huge whites). I moved them to a new layer cage battery we manufacture (the "AlQuailTraz" model) and it took 3 weeks fir them to start laying. I notice tthat they lay more with 14 hours of light (I use landscape lighting on the rafters) it's...

My jumbo whites are Huge. I notice that the hens are larger and appear more rounded whereas the roos are "taller", more road-runner like (probably from "craning" their neck to look around more as they are more interested in the outside of the cage world). I have Some to sex this morn

There's a recipe for "magic water" (see Rhodes recipe) that uses 1 tbsp Mothers or Braggs (raw) ACV, 1/2 cup raw honey, a clove of smashed garlic and one other ingredient (look it up so you won't blame me :) ) in 1 gallon of water (plastic or glass drinkers only as ACV can react with metal...

There are two styles of drinker nipples (as you may know) horizontal and vertical (or "dripples" as I say). The above post mentions placing the drinker ~ 7" above the floor. This is good for verticle nipples, but not ideal with horizontal style whch sould be about 3-4" off the floor...

I had a quail that was walking like a sailor on payday. He was falling over face first, appeared disoriented, would lay on his side. I researched potential causes: H1N1 (bird flu) and another neurological infection which both seams to exhibit progressive and total paralysis in a few days. For...

I have one that's doing that now. I had another die (while my covey was being cared for while on vacation) that may have had a similar condition. Lethargic, can't walk, falls over face first. Doesn't want to eat or drink. He seems strong enough to walk when I handle him, but it's like he has...

I've been offering a smorgasbord of home grown strawberries, Black raspberries, wild strawberries, and minced watermelon. Lovin'it. I'm going to start offering some dried moringa leaf powder... as soon as the leaves dry. I have 8 moringa trees seedlings growing inside my home

I'm doing something similar, but with a lilytech 110v and a xm-18D, in a dishwasher and a larger two zone wine cooler DIY build(s). I'll upload the video of these two under-the-counter medium/large incubators. My plan is to make a color coded wiring harness and rewire a 6 out-let power strip (2...

Trying to design a unique egg turner system in which I need to know the Ave size of jumbo eggs and their weight. I know Myshire Farms uses 1.25" for their roll out tray in their jumbo cages and few if any fail to pass through. As for your question, jumbo eggs fit into the Pheasant turning tray...

They have 4 legs for placing horizontal (slanted with one end lower than the other to accommodate variance in growth rate). They also have two legs for vertical placement when used as a coop heater for mature birds. Always use a reptile (flat) thermometer to check the temp under when using as a...
