Hi all, I had a strange but exciting thought yesterday about making the side pen in my chicken run into a pheasant aviary. It is 3 meters x 2 meters and is 2.5 meters tall. I would only keep three in there but I’m wondering if it would work. It would definitely need some patching up but I think...

I walked into my chicken coop today to find this scene. My very young RIR Buffy was laying twitching on the ground. Bright eyes and very aware of what is going on, she is unable to walk and very light. I can feel her keel and can almost touch my fingers together through her chest. She had been...

Hi all, sorry I haven’t been online for a while, I have been pretty busy. My sister went outside to collect the eggs and found an egg that she claimed was green.

Hi all. I have two tuxedo quail that I want to breed but they don’t have the same base colour. The hen in the first picture is what I think is a dilute tuxedo while the male in the last picture is a Rosetta tuxedo. I was wondering if anyone had any experience breeding the two and what their...

Hi all! I’m new to BYC and I was wondering if anyone would know what colour quail this is. I’ve been keeping quail for about 2 years now and I’m fairly sure the quail is a hen. My guess is it’s a pastel tuxedo but let me know if I’m wrong
