Puffed hen but no other signs…
You’re right. She passed yesterday unfortunately. Couldn’t keep herself warm anymore. She died peacefully, that’s what matters- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs

Puffed hen but no other signs…
She is 4 years old, almost 5. I did write that I put a heating lamp in her enclosure. She loves it. :-)- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs

Puffed hen but no other signs…
Hello everyone, My lady king quail (the orange one in the pictures) has been puffed up for the past few months, but not showing any other signs. For context, she is an older hen. She stopped laying a few months ago and has been puffed up 24/7. Besides the puffing she is still eating...- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs

Quail breathing and swallowing problems? Photos & Videos included!
Hello folks, A few days ago I bought two young coturnix quail hens. One of which is healthy the other not. I asked the breeder if they have any known viruses, to which he said no. I am guessing respiratory infections... But I want to ask you to decide with me whether this assumption is...- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs

Quail acting drunk and loss of balance
My king quail hen had this. She fell over and walked like she was drunk, turns out she was laying a shell-less egg. She even fainted... Unfortunately there are no avian veterinarians in my area, so it is fully my responsibility to take care of them best I can. So I increased the magnesium and...- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs

What age are my quails? (+taming them, incubator)
I don't think that they're males, since I have seen some male quails in the pet store and they call very different than my quail. I have even searched the difference between male and female noises online. My quails sound like this: They usually call like that if they're separated. I also have...- QuailsAreSmallDinosaurs
