Should I be feeding my button quail anything other than their usual commercial fees? Is it necessary? I've heard of it a few times but haven't really done it.
 
As long as their feed is nutritionally complete, they should be fine. However, most commercial feeds don't have enough calcium for laying hens, so you may want to offer some oyster shell or egg shell on the side.

Here is an article that may help you. Buttons have the same nutritional needs as other quail.
