Ok, so Mom and dad quail are sitting on all the hatched babies but not letting them out of the nest-is this normal? They just hatched this morning. The Dad seemed harsh in how he pushed, pecked the baby to go back into the nest and under him. Is this normal or do I need to take him out? Thanks for your help-Not taking any pics till they start walking around, away from the nest. Mum is very protective and she actually rushed out at me when I put food in the aviary and almost trampled her chicks.
Thanks for your advise
