2 of my quails are being picked on by the rest. Theyve all lived together for around 2 weeks now with no problems. Went to feed them this morning and one over their heads was a bloody bald mess (pictured)!!! And the other has feathers missing around its throat with bloody wound (not pictured). The two being picked on are about 2.5 months and the others are around 3 months. Theyve all been fine these past few weeks until now.
I have separated the 2 from the other 5 in a brooder box for now.
Do the injured quail need to be culled? If not, how can i save them?
What else can I do moving forward?
