You might be ok in Louisiana! I’m in Canada so definitely no outdoor buttons for me.

Oh yes, big difference!

I'd probably have a hard time just leaving it too, but how the heck could you feed it?

Eye dropper or small syringe. It’s constant care that’s the hard part.

Let's say I had too much rum...
Then let's say I think I want an incubator...
Then let's say I could get quail eggs from a very attractive insane person...
Who may or may not be named Kiki...

What brand do I need to research?
What flavor rum goes best with an incubator?
If I'm really good, would Santa and his extremely lovely wife send one to me?
I'm counting on you, Batty!

I vote that Santa should bring you an LG still air because I like it and it is working perfectly for me.

Do people eat them too?
Or is that like eating a bantam chicken...kinda not worth it?

It's kinda not worth it. They are pretty much the size of a finch. I haven't eaten any of mine yet.

House pets like keep them indoors in a bird cage type thing?

Yeah, mostly. I need better enclosures for mine. An indoor aviary would be nice, I've read about some cool setups online. Outdoor aviary would need to provide them with cover and places to get out of the wind and weather. @JaeG has buttons and is definitely an expert.

Mrs. C actually has an LG too.

How good have you been this year?

Finally caught up! Was like 200 posts behind lol wanted to check in earlier but didn't and got further behind

Anyway, the phone thing was definitely tricky, took me a while the first time I saw it lol

And I need quail

But I was really into the puppy idea but now I'm getting back into the quail idea. Sometimes I jump between ideas/lose interest lol but I haven't lost interest in a puppy. Still want my own dog to train and raise properly this time. Gator is great but old and lazy and slightly sickly these days. Libby is fun but not mine so can only do so much. I need my own that I can train and take places and/or do a sport with. And there's plenty of breeders with litters. I could get on a list and have one by next year. Okay, maybe I'm getting back into the puppy idea lol But then again, quail would be cheaper and faster and pretty pet like.... or more chickens... but idk if they'll ever agree to that lol

And I could technically maybe sell quail eggs or chicks.

Btw, forgot to check tonight but as of last night, no broodies yet but the fake eggs DID encourage one hen to lay in the box they never lay in. We will see if we get a broody. I hope so lol
