quail help needed ASAP

[maco5]

The only thing she can recall that is different is that right before all the injuries occured, she had been feeding them bean sprouts as a treat.
She said they loved it, and is convinced that had someting to do with it!
I told her I was going to get kicked off this list if I post the bean sprout issue!

either way i wanted to add that i do not believe the problem is a disease related thing. Sounds like theres some aggressors (or one aggressor). It is very strange that that one is a hen, but hopefully she'll check the others to make sure theres not any others that may be male. My male perfers the brown jumbo hen, he has only pulled feathers out of one other hen, all the others have a full head of "hair" LoL

so it's either male breeding aggression, or just aggression due to some sort of stress or just a picky coturnix.

I listened to the vidoe and it didn't sound like what I heard.

I will go check all of the remaining quail for her tomorrow because I agree it could be a male in there somewhere!

Thank you everyone so much!
and thanks especially for not kicking me off because of bean sprouts!

I do also believe it is a space issue, but wanted advice about disease from all of you!

THANKYOU THANKYOU
