What if your baby is too big at 32 weeks?
Some babies are large at birth. That means, at 8 ounces growth per week for the last few weeks, that changes are noticeable. Pregnant women can look different carrying the same size baby depending on their height, how long-waisted or short waisted (distance from ribs to hips) and muscle tone. Also, keep in mind that it is difficult to estimate the baby's size before it is born--my doctor thought mine was less than 8 pounds. However, I had a ten pound baby without a c-section; and I am sure that other people have done so also. Same deal with c-sections. In any case, the baby will be born and you will be glad.

Your quail keep pecking at their feet what can you do?
Presumably young birds? Not much once it starts. Try bedding them on straw and also keep the light level low - which means avoiding using lights for brooding or at least putting them on a dimmer.
Will Coturnix Quail hatch their own eggs?
Yes, they will, but not often. I have raised both Bobwhite and Coturnix Quail for years and never have the Coturnix sat and hatched their own eggs. However, I have had bobwhite hatch their own. This year I had a hen sit on 17 eggs and hatched 14. I found it very interested to see the morning after that the male helped her sit and keep the young warm, just siting side by side in the same nest.
Do Grouse lose their tail feathers?
Yes. It is a survival mechanism which allows them to escape from a predator that has them by the tail. I've seen a great video on Wild America of a grouse doing this to get away from a lynx. Feathers are held in place by muscles, which can relax and allow the feather to be pulled out.
Can quails eat layers pellets?
Layer pellets are fine if you run out of quail feed. Millet and sunflower seed are not part of the layer pellet feed and these are preferred by quail. Wild bird food mix would also be appropriate for quail.
