Suet blocks for Quail?

[Plain_View_Farm]

My DW buys and makes Suet Blocks for the wild birds and I'm wondering now if they could be given to Coturnix and Bob White Quail? They contain fat ( lard most likely) Peanut Butter, Corn Meal and various Wild Bird Seeds like Sunflower. DW adds Bacon Grease to hers.
Any advice?

I've wondered about giving suet too. I think they would probably like it.

David Do A Lil Research.... So Long As The Block Doesnt Contain Any Harmful Seeds Or Other Ingredients I Cant See What It Would Hurt....

Absolutely they love suet.It may take them a day or 2,but when they start it will be gone fast.Don't feed it to them to much maybe once a month as it is fat.Plenty of fruits and veggies too.
In N.H.,Tony.

My quail love the suet with mealworms. Making sure they have enough fat for winter in Minneapolis. Found them here...
