My coturnix quail ONLY want to eat bird seed!

This is helpful because yes, I do want to give them a diet as close to their natural diet as possible. I also forgot to add, I feed them dried mealworms which they love eating. And I sometimes add in oyster shell and grit. They don't always seem to eat that though.

It is 10 below 0 in Anchorage this weekend. my birds eat game food grower which is 24 percent protein. a mixture of sunflower seed, thistle, cracked corn, red wheat all coated with suet. fresh spinach apples and cantaloupe. really anything I can think to throw in there that they might eat.
