What I meant to also say is you can reach out to a bird sanctuary or find falconry groups and if it has to come down to it then they will get food. Roosters are not allowed in my neighborhood/county so I can’t have roosters at all. I do keep one or 2 until they fertilize some eggs and then I...
So I know that this may not be ideal however I have a friend with her falconry license. Any chicks or chickens or quail that die go to her to feed her hawks. I have had to do this with a few roosters as well because no one would take them. It was hard for me but the circle of life happens. I...
Hey friends. Hope everyone is enjoying their Monday! Happy 311 to those who like the band :)
Anyways so I breed Coturnix Quail for therapy, fun and sharing with friends. 43 year old mid life crisis. Well anyways I started this journey December 2022 of incubation and actually started with...
I geek out on chickens and quail. I breed them both and donate the birds! It’s my 43 year old midlife crisis I guess hatching babies. I have 2 kiddos but I may like the birds better 🤫

I have a chicken that has the exact comb of yours with the shorter single that people are saying is a tall pea comb for an EE. I hatch chicks and this is the only one I have hatched that has this short of a single. And I only breed with my own. Here is the pic of your chick. I will post mine...
Not going to lie I give my chickens and quail cooked baked beans and rinse them completely (because they are from a can) and soak them in water then rinse again to get the added salt etc off. I do this as a treat or for the day or 2 I may run out of feed. But I don’t feed them alone I made...
