We used to raise Quail, If you plan on raising some, better read up on them because they are hard to raise. They get pneumonia easy and have to be fed medicated food with Amprol to control coccidiosis. Also be careful as the coccidiosis can spred to your other animals. They will drown in the water if the hole is too big.Chicks kept together in a relatively confined space such as in a brooder have a tendency to peck each other, a nasty habit which can lead to deformed beaks and sometimes even death, we used to clip beaks to prevent cannabalism. They are cute little fellows just hard to raise. |
