I was wondering what you all do for feed. Do you use commercial gamebird feed, or do you have your own mixtures? Also do they make a quail starter for chicks? Or do you use chicken starter?
Around here, middle east nebraska, I have a hard time finding game bird feed priced for less than my first born, so I use chick feed and grind it for the brooder. I use the chicken layer feed for my adult birds It has worked well for me for 3 yrs. Takes some time to grind, but I use a food processor so it's not so bad. As the birds grow I grind less. I raise jumbo soturnix now.
No I don't. Thhe birds are doing quit nicely. Maybe I'm just lucky. All my birds are healthy and energetic,
