Thank you all for the information!
Sadly her foot was connected only by a thin amount of skin, so I carefully removed her foot with sharp scissors (the foot was mostly off, so it took no effort to remove). Then I held her and pressed cornstarch to her wound for about 20 or so minutes.
The bleeding seems to have stopped, she is panting a bit here and there which is concerning.
I am going to clean out a pet carrier for her to stay in. I will use paper towel as litter to try and keep her wound safe.
@alinas2010 I will give her sugar water and eggs!
@Chikenshiken Sadly I am unable to take her to a vet, I don't believe any vets around me take quails
@scyllarus @WoDia She is a pet quail. As long as she isn't suffering, I am willing to give her extra care as a disabled quail. But if I have to, I will cull her to prevent suffering ... I've had her for 2 years, she is the friendliest quail I own, she loves being pat which is so cute <3
When should I disinfect her wound? Her bleeding seems to have stopped, but I don't want to accidentally rush it and make it bleed again.
I will keep everyone posted,
