These are my new Belgian Ladies All Quail, and absolutely lovely! Phil was extremely helpful, I learnt alot from him, and he very generously leant me a rooster! So there should be new babies on the ground very soon! They arent very good pictures (dont do them justice) and its very windy here at the moment so I will take more soon when I can let them out on the grass. The rooster in full crow

OMG Judes!!! I cant believe it Put me down on your list please. You have made my whole year!! No Im not exaggerating! I have been trying to hatch many eggs posted from the east but with no luck I was resigned to waiting until next spring to hatch more eggs from the east. I dont suppose your going to the Wyandotte show in August? And if you'll have any ready then? I would like a trio if possible or I will buy chicks, whatever you have! (Grovelling now) I will drive up to Cunderdin if I cant meet you in Perth though. How far is it from Perth? Cheers, Wendy

lol I love the enthusiasm! Someone as nuts about Belgians as me!! I have a pair of quail millefluer but they are definitely not correct in colour, but if you dont want to show them it wont matter. Cunderdin is 1.5hours from Midland up the Great Eastern Highway. Otherwise I think it will be at least 6months before my proper Millies are makin' babies as they are a young pair. I have some eggs in the bator from Sydney, if they hatch out I'll let you know. Will put some pics of the other ones up in a sec.

This is the Quail Millefleur female. This is "Rocket", her boyfriend. He is actually a very structurally correct rooster (AWESOME footfeather) but his colour is wrong so I am not going to use him.
