Quail don't do well by themselves.
Can you not get a bigger cage and put them together?
What am I missing.

The male will over mate the female

The male will over mate the female

Oh, you only have two?

 

[Fe4RLiciA-]

Ya

 

[Fe4RLiciA-]

I am just taking care of them as pets and not for their eggs or anything

 

[Kiki]

Ya

Ekk...
I don't know what is worse...Him hurting himself trying to get out or him hurting her by over mating.


Can you get more females?

I am wondering if it would be better to have two female pets instead of a pair.

 

[Fe4RLiciA-]

No it will be harder to take care of

 

[Fe4RLiciA-]

But I don’t want to get rid of him
