Silkie hen and quail

[Hobbyfarmer91]

Hello, I have a house silkie that recently recovered from a bad injury. I’ve kept her separate because I think a member from her flock caused the injury. I have an interest in raising quail and was wondering if anyone here has attempted to keep a silkie with quail? If so, could you share your experience?

I have no experience in doing this but I know that chickens can be with quail, however they need a lot space and ideally should be housed separately. I think it would be most likely for the chicken to attack the quail, a lot of silkies I’ve had though have tended to be more tolerant of things so it could work. I’d have a backup plan though just incase.
