Hi, All,
Perhaps it has happened to you. Someone knows you keep a certain kind of animal, and they ask you questions about other kinds of animals.
I am working on a little report on the basics of caring for quail, just an outline really.
One thing we have discussed a bit on the Duck Forum is the kinds of things that make caring for injuries and illness a bit easier, whether a person is out in the bush somewhere without veterinary care, or it's late at night and treatment needs to start right away, till the vet is available.
Here are some things that duck people keep around. Could you look this over and let me know if any of this is forbidden for quail? Thanks.
Epsom salt (used with care for flushing toxins or treating external injury)
Antibiotic ointment
Oregano (natural antimicrobial)
Turmeric (natural mild anti inflammatory)
Food grade activated charcoal (or finely ground clean hardwood charcoal – not from trash-burning fires)
Flexible wrapping for wing and leg injuries
Syringes for feeding ill birds and for medicine
Saline solution for rinsing wounds
Comfrey salve with St. John’s wort for muscle pulls
