  2. Hi, sorry for the delay in responding. I’ve been humm-ing and ha-ing about whether we could cope with a rooster in the fold, but no, I don’t think we’re ready to take one on. Will wait for just girls… thanks anyway. Best wishes for xmas and the new year. – Louise

  3. Hi there,
    I’ve been thinking about keeping quail and perhaps adding some of your Ancona’s to my flock of brown shaver hens (do you think mixing the two breeds would be problematic?). I would like to raise them from as close to day old as possible but don’t want any roosters as my neighbours wouldn’t be very happy. Is there a possibility of me returning roosters to you and leaving their fate to my imagination?
    Thanks

    Reply

    • Amelia – Thanks for the enquiry. Firstly – no I am sure mixing the two chicken breeds is not a problem. Yes I do take back roosters from a number of clients taking day old chickens. Where do you live? Quails I always have as I hatch a batch almost weekly, but most are pre sold. If you want a few only, short notice may be OK, but should you want more, you need to let me know exactly what you are after so I could reserve some specifically for you.

      Thanking you

  6. i am after a breeding group of quail can you send up to Rakaia i have brought from you before different colours in the group would be good

    Reply

    • Gerard – Thanks you for the inquiry. That is all good. Petbus is running in about three weeks time and I could send them then. Just let me know and I can reserve a group for you. What would you like – 7 Females and two unrelated males? Please advise. Kind regards Domenico Cortesi

  11. Triston – No unfortunately the Vitamin Mineral Pre-Mix does not contain protein. I do have another product that contains the vitamins, minerals, enzymes, protein, diatomaceous earth and oyster shell (for layers) that you mix with any poultry starter mash at a rate of 200 gram plus 800 gram of starter mash which will give you a 100 % balanced ration for quails. This product sells at $4 per Kg. Freight again will be $9 per 10 Kg. This is a much cheaper option if you are prepared to blend the two products. The starter premix and layers premix are two different products, but the same mixing ratio – both commencing with chicken starter mash. I hope this will help.

    Thanking you

  21. Thanks for the reply. I take it you are talking about Coturnix coturnix. The day old chicks are $5 each (un sexed) and increase by $ 4 per week of age until the males reach $10 and the females $20 maximum. So I sell point of lay pullets for $20 and breeding males for $10 each. Should you take a group then discounts apply.

    Thanking you

    • Ella – They will most definitely survive and do well. I have been breeding them in Northern Italy for decades and it is much colder there than here. As long as they are dry, out of direct drafts and well fed and watered, they are fine.

    • The Quails differ in price, depending on age and breed. The day olds start at $5 each (un sexed) and increase in price by $4 per week, until the Females reach $20 and the Males $10 each. Group discounts apply or larger lots. Thanking you Back Yard Farmer

  36. Hi, I’m interested in the incubator you mentioned. Is it 2nd hand & does it work really well & also does it come with an instruction book because I’ve never used an incubator before? Thanks. Kim

  40. Thanks for the inquiry.

    The quails start at $5 for day olds (unsexed) and increase by $4 per week until the males reach $10 and the Females $20. Only the Pharoahs and Italians can be color sexed at about three weeks of age – the others have to be vent sexed when mature and six weeks of age.
    Thanking you

  41. Richard. Thanks for the inquiry. I normally sort, sell and cull immediately after five weeks of age So it is fair to say they will be between five and six weeks. Egg production starts at six to seven weeks. Thanking you

    Reply

  43. Melanie – In my case the Golden Italians and Pharaohs are the best layers. The birds are of reasonable size and slaughtering at five weeks of age give you about 90 % of mature weight, dressing at more than 150 g . These birds are soft and tender to eat. Egg production for these breads are well in excess of 95 % for at least the first year and slightly less in year two. Where in the worls are you?

  44. Hi Roz. Thank you for the inquiry. I can most definately deliver to Auckland. The freight would depend on whether you want the Pet House in a flatpack or already assembled. Petbus is doing their rounds at the end of the month and the live birds can be send then. Eggs I ship every day all over New Zealand. So the short answer is yes, I can ship to Auckland and I would love to supply you. What size incubator are you after? Kind regards

  46. How do you send live birds to Northland?

    i may want 2 or 3 breeding lots if you have a succesfull method of freight

    Reply

    • Thnaks for the inquiry

      I send by Petbus, which travels once a month. Their fees are about $60 for a large container, that would hold about one group of ten. Please let me know how many you are after, and I can get a definite quote from them. The quote may differ, depending on the crate sizes. If you are taking two to three groups, I would not recommend 3 males per seven females, as you actually only require one male per four females. My breeding groups of 7 + 3, allows for a spare male. So if you want to take 24 females (more than three standard groups), you only would need six males. Please let me know.

      Thanking you
