I just got my button quail 3 days ago, I have him in an aquarium covered with cloth so he does not jump. He has water, food, and hiding places inside (still need to sort out a sandbox). He managed to jump out of there this morning after I had a nearly sleepless night because of his attempts to jump inside it. He does not do it day time and I covered his cage already for the night as I read they might be attracted to the steer light outside. It's happening less tonight but he still jumps sometimes. Is he just unhappy ? And also he's very scared of me and I'm not sure how to get him to get used to me, how long does it usually take for a button quail to let itself be touched at least. Please help I adore him but don't understand his behaviour much, do I just need to give him more time ?
