My female Button Quail that I hand raised recently lost her mate who I purchased from the feed store as an adult. She is devastated! She seems to have gotten attached to my two guinea fowl and acts like they are her parents. The guineas are indifferent to her and only slightly, gently peck at her when she gets too close to their face. I let her free range f or a bit and she just follows the guineas around. I supervise everything and she does not get hurt and she hasn't gotten too close to them recently.
Does anyone have a button quail for sale in california? Lodi area? My feed store doesn't have anymore and I cant find any anywhere. The closest is 6 hours away. If I can't find any button quail what is a bird species that can be housed with the button happily? What species will get along fine?
Thank you!
 
I'm in the bay area and I have extra males. I just technically gave them away on craigslist but he has yet to collect them. I can always tell the guy one got out. All he wants them for are aviary cleaners.
