I was pulling the feed trailer with my 3/4 ton Dodge but it always felt like the "tail wagging the dog".

My solution was to use a bigger dog...........

We use about 5 tons of feed each week to feed 60,000 birds or so.

That's a lot of birds! How long is the growing season for quail?

Nice looking 818.

Thanks......

Hatching season is June through September. The birds need 18 weeks to mature. Hunting season is October 1 through March 31 for licensed preserves so we only have one grow-out season each year.

Thanks......

We have raised quail for hunting preserves and individual land owners here in the SE for nearly 50 years. Family operation. Not a very profitable business.........

The 'emblem' on the front is the name of my youngest granddaughter....... I put the older one's name on my forestry mulching tractor.
