Thank you again for your advice. I’ve tried the mineral oil. How long do you think it will take for impaction, or for them to be “in the clear”? I totally panicked when I found the grit in the food dishes—we had a friend caring for the birds, and she confused the bags.
Long story short, my quail were accidentally fed chick grit instead of food for 2-3 days. Is there anything I can do to help them, or do I have to just wait and see if they are okay? They always had water, and they have food now!
