Ok, so I lifted up a large styrofoam container holding plants and dirt and one of my quail crawled underneath. I put the container down on the quail and quickly lifted it up, realizing what I had done. Now, she's laid an egg (normal looking) and pooped, but she's breathing hard and sometimes gasping while laying down with her wing sagging. She can't walk well and there probably is some internal damage. I gave her some sugar water.
I'm beating myself up because of my carelessness and I'm not sure what to do next.
Please help!

! Don't beat yourself up, it was an accident. Maybe separate her from the others and put her in a quiet, comfortable place where you can easily monitor her...
