So my quails got attacked by a mongoose. My quails are about 5 months old. One of the quails got wounded on both sides of her head. Her eyes were shut but she's been starting to open them up after 2 days passed. She has only been sleeping though. I force her to eat and drink but she only drinks from a dropper. She would peck on the food pellet but won't actually pick it up. I want her to survive and she needs to have some food to heal up. Idk what to do.

She's likely in shock, which can last days after the attack. Give her some sugar in her water with a little pinch of salt and baking soda. Give her as much as she will drink each hour for the rest of the day. If she is still lethargic tomorrow, continue the sugar and electrolytes each hour.

Thanks so much I will try that.
