Quail for a friend

[Tikkajazz94]

Hello,
My Canary breeder would like button quail to go with her canaries. Since they don't fly, They will be cleaning the bottom of the cage (She's had them before). But I would like to know what kind? It has to be a bit colourful, since she is a canary breeder, and has colourful birds, it would help her sell some birds.
Thanks,

Thanks, it did.

So by Breeders in Canada, I was thinking of these for her:

Cinnamon (blue faced
Normal Red Breasted
Pied

or Order eggs from the states (Saw this on Quaillady's website, Caught my interest.)
Cinnamon Red Breasted Fallow/Pink eyed Dilute Pair

The are monogamous so which ever route you take they would need to be kept in male and female pairs or else they will fight.
I love the cinnamon and pied personally
