Hello all! I have a small farm with a lot of rescues on it! From cats to goats to lovebirds and even 1 little, adorable, hognose snake! I finally finished building the Peacock Palace, next project is Ducks Digs which will be beside our little pond! In the meantime, I have been talking to my...

Quail Update Attached is an update video of my Quail Pen if your interested.

I'm in need of a safe heating source for my Coturnix quail, for when I'm awhile for three days. I'll be away for graduation in December; they are roughly 2-3 days old right now. I'm currently using a heat lamp, which I like but I worry. And I got a heat plate but the thing is too big for my...

So I am preparing for winter, and I was wondering if I should use the clear/yellow heat lamps, or should I use a red one. I don't know if either one is better, I am worried that the bright light is probably bad for them, but then, does the red one have any disadvantages? I tried the ceramic...

I just brought home three call ducks and they are in a cage near, but separate from my pekins and brown leghorn chickens. They are trying to get out almost like they are trying to be with the other ducks.. I don’t know what to do. I feel bad, but I really do not want them in the same cage due to...

Planning on selling young chicks locally I want to build chicken cage or coop that is portable and can hold about 50 chicks about 3 week old to 6 weeks old Has anybody done something similar?

I recently acquired some coturnix quail to keep in my suburban backyard, and when doing research on housing I couldn't find much information on how quail do with double level hutches/cages. I ended up buying this rabbit hutch (Wooden Rabbit Hutch) and was worried the quail wouldn't figure out...

Hi! 3 out of the 6eggs i tried to let poultry supply incubate hatched May 16/17. This is my second time to raise baby chicks without the hen. My brooder space is quite big but they are only 3. It is about a 2ft x 2ft dimension. I have used 25watts light bulb for there heat source placed in the...

Does anyone know if there is a vendor for quail cages specifically for outdoor use?

I needed a cage for a sick bird to hang out in until she's better. So I went to Persmart and got a folding dog cage for 50 bucks down from 70 or 80 seemed like a me a good deal figured I'd let you guys and gals know in case you needed one.

Hello! A few days ago we bought a Serama Roo and when we got home, I noticed he had some yellow crust on his comb. I have sprayed it twice with Vetericyn, but I don't think it's done anything. I also noticed that he spends most of the day napping on the roost, but I think that might have...

Hi guys I am buying jap quail soon and wanted to know how many to buy the dimensions of the cage are Dimensions Width: 77cm Depth: 45cm Height: 50cm plus 40cm legs. if u could tell me the maximum in that cage that would be great

We have to give our rooster medication twice a day. Because we need to go inside the cage that part of the process is difficult because the rooster goes into a panic. Once he catches him I am able to pill him with ease but it is the catching part in the cage that is difficult. Should we first...

I need a new home for my pet mourning dove, 18 weeks, female, hand raised since birth. Chicago area will come with Cage and a bag of food with everything included in cage, best offer^

What are your thought on keeping hens in a cage all to themselves temporarily, to see what color egg they lay? I know keeping chickens in cages for an extended period of time is a no no, but what if you put them in a cage for a small amount of time (at most a week)? Of course, they have acess...

I'm looking for a source for cages for coturnix quail. I need them to have pull out bottoms for cleaning so I can keep them indoors for the winter. I'm not trying to spend $40 for a small cage either. I keeping seeing crazy prices online. I need to house at least 50 quail, so I'm thinking...

I want to finally build some breeder cages. Show me yours for inspiration. Feel free to include tips, dimensions, and other relevant information. As some background, I have coturnix quail and have began hatching our own eggs. I currently have 1 community cage and am planning a second one soon...

I am completely new to free ranging, and I'm scared to death about predators! So, I finally found a great way to start out! This is what I do: I have a big metal old dog cage, which I use for my chickens. I catch a chicken from the run, and put her in the cage. I go back and catch her a buddy...

Hi everybody, No other threads about quail pacing could really answer what's going on with my button quail. I'm sick and groggy so this post is a little rambly, bear with me. She has been pacing a lot for a while, probably over a month. She used to do it for a short while and then would stop...
