Hi, My 2 1/2 week old quails are digging in the corner of the brooder. Is this normal behavior? First timer here..

Yes it is. They love to scratch like chickens.

If they don't have one yet, give them a little bowl of dirt or sand, and then sit back to enjoy the show.

I gave my baby Coturnix their first dust bath today! I heated up some play sand in the oven and they went to town!
