Mr Moorehouse,

I visited your site.. Thanks for the explanation on your flight pens on the flight ready birds section. I was hoping to find out how many adult quail you can stick in the 12'x60' pens and for how long without causing birds to fight and canabilize?

magnumhntr:
Technically you can put 1 quail per sq/ft. But, I put no more than 500 in a flight pen at once, usually 400. The only time I put in 500 is in the fall because 300 of those go into the layer pens when they hit 20 weeks and I can tell hens from males (tennessee reds), leaving the other 200 plenty of space to get thier wings in time for spring training. I would not recommend going under 2 sq/ft/bird unless you have a program that you know will produce good flying birds in tighter conditions...

Thanks for visiting the site :-)

Chris
