Do you want ones easier to handle or do you want color dose the size matter

i want ones that are easy to handle and friendly, il like them to be smaller to save on space and color doesnt really matter

are there any quail that cant fly? that might sound dumb but i know nothing about quail

 

[chicken+quail=luv]

I'm pretty sure almost all breeds of quail fly. I've only had Cortunix, and they can fly.

They can all fly. The easiest to handle are jumbo browns. If you clip a wing it will keep the flying down

Mine if they did fly would just sit there and wait for to pick them up.. They dont seem to go as crazy as some caged birds when they get out...
