If you're keeping quail in a small outdoor enclosure on the ground perhaps think about making a mesh floor to keep out any vermin as rats love to eat quail and would dig under walls to get to them.

I seen a blog on KZread A man said, When putting eggs in a incubator The roundish eggs make female chicks And the the pointed ones make male chicks If you run your finger over the pointed end You should feel like a thorn Which most times too small to see with the eyes He said he has 100% Success rate with this method Because we all want more females

It's definitely worth a try you won't be disappointed :)

I had to look to the animal kingdom for unconditional love, and its there in every way it could be, at 9 days your incubating eggs are attentively listening to the outside world for signs of their mother, as is their mother listening out for them, everyday after your eggs are anticipating the opportunity to establish communication becoming increasingly more of a motivation thus they feel excited by the idea of hatching. HUMANITY WE ARE BLIND...

I've been thinking about getting quail for a couple of years now, but want to make sure the foxes, dogs, cats and, now I know, rats can't get them. We already have those black water butts, so it's good to know they can be used for watering the birds (detailed plans for that set-up would be great). The main reason I've stalled is because I'd hate to butcher them, even though having a source of meat would be fantastic.

@richardrobertson1331

Please be careful feeding watermelon and green leafy eatable plants since their daily protein requirement can be compromised. A little, now and then, is fine. Malnutrition makes them less able to fight disease organisms already inside their bodies, like avian tuberculosis. In the wild they eat bugs to supplement their high protein requirements. As a treat try feeding them live grasshoppers, instead.

@@gwenyngruffydd Yeah we keep all our poultry in a pen within a pen, large walk in head height pen is entered and the smaller cages are kept inside there. Otherwise, bobcat, coyote, marten, etc can reach in and yank on their cages. You can also keep them in a lighted room like a garage or shed with a window. One person I know has them in the house as pets since she has no yard. Just 2 quail make me about 15 eggs a week which is like 4 chicken eggs.

How does one test intelligence? conceptualization,, My quail are now one month old and they're just short of the same size as my shoes and in tip top condition I might add , Anyhow they follow me everywhere I go and the instant I take of my shoes there is no pause of confusion at all, they instantly recognize that I have taken off my shoes, this is not the case with all animals that they have a concept of clothing... these animals are not at all dumb and the fact that we fail to recognize their intelligence says more about us than them..

Interesting talk but I don't think recommending 10-12 quail for that tiny area is a good idea. That might suit the human for egg production but isn't taking their quality-of-life into consideration.
