Hello! In about two weeks I'm adopting 4 quail. A very sweet pair of bobwhites (a black looking colored one and a snowflake) and a pair of friendly blue scaled quail. I just have a few questions. Here's some info:
My aviary is 20 feet 6 inches by 14 feet.
I have two coops, one is 10 square feet the other is 18 square feet.
The scaled quail are a mated pair, and the bobwhites are a bonded pair (not sure if they're a male and female pair or not).
so here's my questions. Both pairs are coming from the same place.
1. Do I have enough room for two species to comfortably be together?
2. Are Bobwhites and Scaled Quail monogamous?
3. Do the coops have enough room in them? (There will be one for each pair).
4. Will the scaled quail or bobwhite quail try to crossbreed? If so is there some way to stop them?
5. Does the snowflake quail in this picture look like a male or female? They're about a year old.
6. what coloration do you think the brown bobwhite is?
Thanks!
