I just decided to keep coturnix quail. I am just getting started.
I recently acquired 7 quail, 5 females, and 2 males. I was planning on only having one male, but I was given another male by accident. I would just process him, but he is such a nice looking bird (tuxedo) with a good temperament, I would hate to do it. He is much less aggressive than my other male... do you think there is any chance of being able to keep all 7 birds in one cage with out some kind of divider? (my cage is 2ft x 3ft) or would would i need to keep the males separated if it did not want any carnage to ensue? any advice would be appreciated.
