Adorable little birds. I have a pair and plan to incubate the eggs this spring. They are very amusing and jump around but are quite quiet.

They leap into the air when startled so make sure their cage is secure. They do not roost at night so once they are out of the cage they won't come back and are easy prey to predators.

   My male is not aggressive and are they quite affectionate towards each other and sleep together.

   I have heard that they will go after smaller quail so I will need to keep chicks separate until they are grown.

   I feed them the chicken crumble that I feed my chickens.
