3 little birds

in busy •  6 years ago 

I have not posted much lately.
Here is a quick update:

I now own 3 coturnix quails.
Out of 7, only these guys have hatched.

I will document their lives -if I can- from their first day ( today ) till they end up in the pan. I have a suspicion they are all males. The bright one is the quietest and most vicious.

Btw: Those cheap incubators from China really work.
Mine is just uncomfortably loud.
I will customize it for next year.

haha :D

If they are well feed in just two months you won't believe how Big they will be. Well I felt they are catching cold..!

Wait what 😮 your going to eat them... 😭 oh i could never raise something from day one and then eat it.. i mean i understand its food but im a wimp when it comes to these kinds of things lol. I get attached to easily. But 👏 to u . Cant wait to see what they look like as adults

I couldn't either, even though I'm not vegan and I love chicken. I don't know maybe we are humanizing them too much, but look at those faces... honestly I hope they escape xD

😆😆🤣😂 thats so funny u said what i was thinking 😁

Cool! They are adorable but I imagine a bit of a mess as they increase in size.

They will live in an outside pen, where they can be as messy as they like.

Nice

Excelente amigo @felixxx al tener esas 3 pequeñas aves esperemos crezcan rapido y no te den mucho trabajo y se puedan multiplicar y asi tener mas aves de ese tipo. Saludos

The survival rate is as low as in crusader kings:)

I am trying to have hens.
Not a male successor :P

Didn't play Muslim in a long time, but couldn't one take concubines there? :)
Would be the exact same purpose?
:))

As a Muslim, you can just have multiple wives.
Decadence is their main problem, then.

😂😂

I don't know how you can raise them and then kill them, I mean I eat chicken too but I wouldn't be capable of killing them, especially if I raised them. The upvote goes to morally support the poor chickens :(

Chickens, if you read this you still have chance to escape. Run!

that beautiful and tender quail, I confess that their eggs are very rich with cream
I already want some to have them in my backyard 😃 🐥

Wow. They are so cute..

What of if I tell you that one them is female?

Might not be the exact one you expected.. But one is...

"smiles"......

Don't worry.. You will be surprised when they get to grow big.

I have heard so much about you... @gimba always talks about you.. Said so much wonderful things too. In Nigeria, having a foreign friend is a gift.. I will tell you why soon bro.. But am glad to be your friend...

Resteemed and upvoted

Am Julian @Juliangold... Am a Good friend of @Gimba and he sends his greetings bro.
You are wonderful..

Thumbs up from @Juliangold

I have made a lot of friends on Steemit, from all over the world.

Niceeee, if you happen to get some females will you collect eggs?

Originally, I wanted to buy 4 hens just for that.
So I built a pen.
Once I was finished, the hens were sold ...
