I just got a Japanese quail

[Yo Yo Oreo]

Grats on the quail! Very pretty looking. It sounds like she is either stressed or hot. Have you had her long? If under a few days I would bet stress. If you think it's heat related though make sure she has access to shade and lots of water.

I only have had her a week. I rescued her from a cat I had to take her to a vet cause she had injuries to her right side, lucky she didn’t have any broken bones just a bite which i have to give her anti-biotics and pain meds(she hates) I’m hoping she gets use to me soon. I feel so bad cause she gets so scared when i have to i give her meds.

My lizard is annoyed with me right now because I have to give him his meds.

Try not to take it personal. They are a pretty nervous bird. Even the babies I have hatched and tried to handle every day since hatching still get very nervous and scared when I reach in to change food or whatever. Seems to just be a part of their nature.
