quails

Hey everyone! Not sure if anyone wants to see, but I love watching step by steps of other people's set up, so I thought I'd post my aviary build for anyone that's interested :) It's a slow process as work and lockdown restrictions mean time and resources are limited, but hopefully we'll be able...

Here’s our set up for our quails and a quick comparison with chickens hatched at the same time. Quails are a great options for farms and homesteaders.

Just for those of you who are thinking of keeping adult egg-laying coturnix quail here's exactly what I do... It work well for me and I have never had any serious problems. I keep 13 quails outside in an aviary: 12 females and one male. I hatched all of them so they are quite friendly and eat...

Update on our baby quails. Now 10 days old and growing so fast. Looks at these different breeds!

So my quails leg accidentally got stepped on when we were putting them back in their cage for the day (it’s a long complicated story) but now he can’t walk and he’s moving himself around with his head and kind of dragging his body, we were going to put him down but he seems pretty content, he...

Hi. My I have 3 female cortunix quails for a bit information, and I‘ve never seen them fight each other like this. It isn’t fighting really, because one of them runs around the cage away from the other which keeps pecking it. I don’t know what to do, does anybody know anything on this? I don’t...

Hi. I have three female coturnix quails, and recently me and my dad had some leftover watermelon and so we gave it to them. We gave some more, and once we left the cage alone they started eating both the seeds and the watermelon. Except, now they have dried up red watermelon juice on their...

So happy about my very first quails that hatched this weekend. They are both doing good.

Hello everyone i would like some advice since my quails are fighting i have not identified breed or sex yet. just recently i had too move them out of their cage into a more secure rabbit hutch since they kept escaping and one got hurt doing so.Never until now have they started to peck and...

**Reposting/starting a thread for this here. Hey folks! Long time no post. I'm sure we can all agree; Life gets out of hand sometimes... I digress... I've returned today with a crazy concept I plan to implement myself soon. I figured it would be a great idea to share the idea with this...

i have heard that adult chickens cannot be kept with quails due to the pecking order and the transfer of diseases... but can three week old or 2 week old chicks live with adult quails TEMPORARILY

Hi, recently my one of two quails that I made a post about because it began pecking the other, has started to try jump out of its box... The box is big enough for the two and the one quail that jumps had its behavior changed around 2 weeks ago, it used to be fine with me holding it and...

I guess I'll start off by saying hi, my preferred name is roxas. And now I'll answer those questions. Here goes: 1: I am not new to chickens. I have raised 2 flocks with my family, and it has always been me doing the begging for more. The first flock, consisted of a varying mix, like white...

Dear Community, I am going to be hatching my first quails pretty soon. What advice would you give? Is there any special sensitivities they have that I should be aware of? What is something you enjoy the most about quails! And what is something that you would rather not deal with? Also, I am...

Hi, recently i noticed that one of my two 3 week old coturnix quails suddenly just started pecking the other quail who is a few days older than it, I let them out of their box for a hour or so to let them roam free but the younger quail chased the other trying to peck it. But sometimes they...
