I reakon baby quails are just the cutest hey - when mine had babies I was stunned to see they were born with feathers already and up and running. It was the first time I had quails that actually laid. So cute ..... we want to see pics when they are born!!!

This is the brown pair of quails nest, you can also see the hen:-  There is actually 8 eggs now... Finger crossed... The nest is also right next to the door... This is the brown male quail:-  I forgot to say before, this pair is in with the Red Rumps, should I be worried?  These are the white quails... I call them that because they aren't silver:-  The white female is next to the brown hen (spare) and her silver sister, you can see the different colour between the white and silver. The male is next to the wire, he isn't as white as the hen, but he is a different colour to the silver males... And this is the cinnamon quails... Just need to put them in a avairy by themselves:-   And last of all, the newest silver quail nest:-  I put a couple of brown quails eggs in the nest too... See if I get any brown babies... |
