This is my first time owning quail, and I've loved every second of it, except for this one problem. It always seems that my button quail keep getting their own poop stuck on their claws, turning them into little orbs of fecal matter and feathers hanging off their feet until I clean it. I've had to remove it from every bird at least once, and now the poop is attaching to their feet too. I clean their cages weekly, and they are on the carefresh shavings bedding at the moment. I've heard bad stories from parrot forums on keeping a sandpaper perch/spot for them, and I know it'll get pooped on incessantly. Does anybody have a good idea to keep their feet clean for longer?
