My quail are molting and pecking each others to death

Separate out the injured ones, clean them up and give them some peace and quiet for a day or two. I hope it's just irritation from moulting, but you'll be able to observe them better when they're separated.

Do they have places to hide? Do they have dirt boxes to bathe in? Both of those things might help.

Thank you. I'll consider it. Will find something for them to entertain.

Yeah food and water is always full and clean.

.. what is the food?

Normal food?!? They have been eating it for a long time. I forgot all % of protein of calcium.

If protein is low, you may want to add mealworms to boost protein or switch to higher protein feed.

look on the container? it should say.

low protein diet in quail can lead to cannibalism.
