It sounds like a good one to try.
My 5 chickens are now 6, but they aren’t too happy about it! Dad was out for a walk and spotted a young hen wandering loose near a busy intersection. We’ve been trying to track down the owner, but no luck. So for now, she’s in a cobbled-together pen in the back garden. My 5 older hens are not liking this interloper, but as long as they’re separated, they can’t attack her.
I’m still shelling beans from this year’s harvest, and already researching what I want to grow next year. Seriously looking at quail as an additional cash crop. We’ll see.
My step grand dad raised quail as a cash crop at one time. My dad used to go quail hunting when I was a kid. Sounds like a decent idea to me.
I’ve been pleasantly surprised with the tomatoes grown in garden pots, and also mostly bright indirect light. Just harvested the largest green tomatoes, which have turned a beautiful red color. Fall tomatoes for Thanksgiving dinner tonight! Temperatures dropping fast so I’ll probably lose the plants tonight. Not covering them up. Happy Thanksgiving.
Enjoy!
Frost got mine two weeks ago. :(
Happy Thanksgiving.
