In Episode 155 of Mother Earth News and Friends, Kelly Bohling joins us to discuss how to raise quail in urban and suburban spaces, including how to check local regulations and prepare your environment for your new flock. If you live in a city, town, or suburbs and want to raise a poultry flock of your own, keeping backyard may be right for you.
