i've never had newly hatched baby buttons.. but I know for coturnix you need to give them food and water within the first 24 hours because they don't have the food reserves that a baby chicken has

sweet, the first one will have a buddy now.
Also a feather duster works great as a seragate mommy for chicks. Chicks love to cuddle in the feathers. It may work for the quail too.
Hope all your button quail hatch for you.
