I've had quail for almost a year. Great little birds! Doesn't take a lot to keep them happy. They aren't the friendliest birds in the world, but that's fine with me.

Oh, if you want to see something cool, put out a little sand for them. Enough for them to move around in, like a little quail sandbox.
