Introducing myself

Hi, my name is Mel. I am here to learn more about the birds we currently keep and breed.
I love king quail, find they are my specialty.. I have built 4 Enclosures by myself from Bunnings shelving to house my quails in 12 seperate Enclosures. I house one pair in each enclosure. I currently have 9 pairs along with 9 chicks
i let my Quail incubate their own eggs as each time I've tried, I've failed miserably! My birds are fed on a a variety of foods. Game bird starter, seed, millet, shell Grit, mixed fine cut up green leafy veg, bugs and Meal Worms. Each bird get wormed at 5 weeks old, then every 6 months. I add Organic Apple Cider Vinegar to their water every 4-6 weeks and change their water and foods over every few days.
Our other birds we have are: Charlie the Corella (unsexed), 5 cockatiels - 1 lives inside with us and growls and barks like our little chihuahua, 3 orange shouldered parrots, 2 budgies, 2 ringnecks currently on the box and 2 scaley lorikeets. We also have 2 dogs and 4 chooks.
I'd love to get some finches, but that won't be for a while
Thanks for reading
