We have had another increase in our Quail AGAIN. Went out yesterday to find another silver baby then today the cinnamons have bought out 3 cinnamon babies. 2 silver hens are still sitting
Looks like we'll be flooded with them again

Denise give them some grated hard boiled egg in chick starter...they'll be thriving in no time. Helps heaps with their growth and feathering up.  |

Thanx for that Big S but they get that now. I had to put the wee one down, it seemed as tho he had had a stroke because he couldn't stand up at all, but just lay on his side & kicked so I thought it would be best to end it for him. Now I'm waiting for the Cinnamon hen to hatch out her eggs  |

THEY'VE DONE IT AGAIN I went out this morning & found 10 newies running around. I had a handful of babies but found I couldn't crawl along the floor without squashing them as I went,so I had to let most of them go & start again. Have them all boxed & safe now Still waiting on the 2 Cinnamons down the back |

I have to keep them safe from attacks by the other Quail adults.We lost about 5 babies last month because they didn't saty with their mUm. I have to put them in another aviary when they can look after themselves & keep warm.
