    Gamble quail help

    Actually, I think you're right! I messed it up I think with bobwhite quail because they both start with B.

    Gamble quail help

    Alright! It's been 2ish days and the gamble doesnt seem to be pecking at our bobwhite quail anymore. The gamble is eating more and displaying similar behavior now to the bobwhite.

    Gamble quail help

    Hey all! So recently family found a gamble quail chick abandoned at a party (parents didn't come back probably because of lots of small children). We don't have a brooder so we made a makeshift home for the poor thing for the night and tried to feed and give water to it before bed. It only...
