We have kept chickens for the last 20 years but now only have old girls left. When they have died we would love to keep quails instead. We have a good set up for them but I have a couple of questions and wondered if anyone could advise.
Do you keep all girls or a ratio of boys to girls? We aren’t planning to breed but will collect and refrigerate eggs daily so I gather fertilised eggs aren’t a problem.
Is the specialised quail food easily available or do you just use chicken food?
Any other gems of knowledge I might find useful? I have read up on the basics.
Cheers.
