Who breeds stubble quail?

I have 16 and i wonder how a pair of california quails would be with them

The aviary is big and heaps of plants so do you think they will get along ok

I dont suppose they would cross breed would they

My mate has a few but he keeps them separate like all quails you should keep the california quails separate they can pick on other quails

Is the stubble the same as the brown quails I see?

I breed California Quail and King Quail in the same aviary, they actually both lay in the same nest. I introduced them into the aviary both at the same time. I tried putting more hen king quails in there and they all picked on them. So i removed the new Hen Kings. When the kings have bubs, the cals actually look after them to. :) As Cal Quails "Rarely" sit on there one eggs. mine are pulled and incubated.

So the Conclusion is: Yes they can be housed together, but it is very wise you move them both to a new aviary both at the same time. :) Not move Cals into the Stubble aviary.

So if I take out the stubbles and then put them all back say 2 weeks later would that work?

I would say yes it probally will. I dont think it's the stubble quail you have to be worried about. It would be the Cals. They can be quite mean towards others. Just have a spare aviary to be safe. I dont see a problem in it. But better be safe then sorry.

Cheers
Nick.
