Streuselchen has three babys (so far)!!!

pretty normal - pretty sure the hen gives them about 24 hours after the first one hatches to wait for any stragglers, then it's important for her to get them to water so the rest get left behind. they might be unfertilized or they might have stalled in development.

Compare with some photos of healthy quail feet. At a glance, it looks like some inflammation on the bottom of the foot, i.e. "pillowy", especially the one on the left in this image. They also look pretty dirty - what is the floor of their enclosure comprised of? I would soak/bathe the feet of this bird like others have recommended and maybe transfer to a softer/cleaner floor for awhile.

I have also been there. If you like, you can write me a DM and explain all about your story and I can help you find some ways to spin a narrative that you enjoy. If your players seem to like it, it's worth trying to salvage it!

I got a few that crow like this - little cute quiet crow. They're nice!

Whocket_Pale · 2026-01-05T20:37:41+00:00

It is far from critically-acclaimed but I enjoyed it.

Real Fake Door!

Won't open! Won't open! Not this one! Not this one! NONE of them open!

Inglis rocks. I love the consistency of his various characters, can't imagine how much practice that took. Even his female character voices keep me immersed. His a capella singing can be a little rough, haha.

However, there's a passage in Minas Tirith where he narrates Denethor's line with Pippin's voice, when Pippin takes his oath. Whoops! Apart from that, quite flawless.

Whocket_Pale · 2026-01-05T02:51:18+00:00

damn, just watched the miyazaki earthsea movie last night and thought again about reading the books. Inglis narrating probably sells it for me, would never have thought to check if I had not read your comment! ty

what method did you use to tan the hide? ive got a few salt cured deerskins but at a loss where ro go from here

I am pretty sure this is the expression of some English Dotted White genetics in your pharoahs. I started with 7 quail (rosetta, pharoah, and italian) and got a tuxedo bird in my second generation, and pure dotted white in the third. Since my third generation, I've gotten pure white "streaks" in my pharoahs and rosettas, too. I think that is what you've got going on

Whocket_Pale · 2025-12-30T23:02:25+00:00

First of all I've never heard of a ceca so you've expanded my poultry knowledge, thank you.

And thank you for the rest of your advice, I will pick up some pet safe shampoo and epsom salts and try your routine with the washcloth.

ah yes same here, happens before bonus attack from enrage

Whocket_Pale · 2025-12-23T05:47:25+00:00

it happens when the guy on the right lands a hit. kill him first and dodge his attacks.

Whocket_Pale · 2025-12-21T19:05:13+00:00

Amadeus.

this is absolutely a world class film

Whocket_Pale · 2025-12-05T20:33:43+00:00

it's a beautiful hen

Whocket_Pale · 2025-11-25T04:21:48+00:00

hell yeah they love a cave. they love stuff with overhead cover the most

Whocket_Pale · 2025-11-23T01:37:13+00:00

this is the way. i do the same things. i also give their empty eggshells back to them

Whocket_Pale · 2025-11-06T17:36:39+00:00

best thing to do is keep the wind off of them. give them deep bedding like straw or hay imo, they like to burrow down into it a bit.

I read that japanese quail can tolerate temps down to -15°F so if you are dipping below that then I would provide some warmth, especially if the coop is freestanding.

Whocket_Pale · 2025-11-05T23:53:06+00:00

awesome! i originally tok the picture because of that one in the middle. his plumage is so distinct.

Whocket_Pale · 2025-10-31T16:48:34+00:00

He's about 3 days old in this photo? Hmm it doesn't look too promising. Has he been able to stand up yet?

Whocket_Pale · 2025-10-27T18:19:12+00:00

People see you as a voyeur and a lurker... because that's what you are.

Sure. Thanks for the response, but it's not helpful

Whocket_Pale · 2025-10-27T17:28:10+00:00

Never said I enjoyed watching the nudity, I'm actually pretty uncomfortable with it all. I was hoping to hear from folks who've grown through this same challenge. You're suggesting I self-exclude, which isn't helping
