Description
Book: Quails, Partridges, Rock Partridges, Francolins
by Dr. Sigurd Raethel
Compared to larger gallinaceous birds, quail and partridges have the undeniable advantage of thriving even in relatively small aviaries, making their care and breeding possible even for bird enthusiasts with only a small garden. Dr. Heinz-Sigurd Raethel's standard work provides a comprehensive overview of all species of these gallinaceous birds, their natural taxonomic position within the system, their morphological and color characteristics, and their geographical distribution, reflecting the latest research.
The book also covers the design and setup of enclosures and habitats, breeding and rearing, feeding, and the compatibility of different species with one another. Creating the right conditions is crucial for successful breeding. Dr. Heinz-Sigurd Raethel's book is an indispensable guide in this regard.
