The birds arrive from Alabama in a climate controlled trailer and are raised in an isolation environment where the birds don't see people.
Does he procure the birds from Vick's in Susan Moore, Alabama? I've seen him cycle 10s of thousands of Quail. I believe his bank of incubators has a capacity of say 20k eggs.
I was fortunate to get in on the tail end of the Bob White decline. I tagged along with many others who had seen the pinnacle hearing talk of dozens of coveys per day and just cutting out the Bob's on the covey rise. Every since I could eat dog food, we've always had a bird-dog and intend the same for the Boys Ellenburg. In this area in the 1980s many saw the writing on the wall and sold dogs, guns, all before the population dip.
