What are these?

[lane-h]

My wife is a school teacher and one of the kids there brought these chicks and turned them out. My wife was told they were quail but I dont know. I have never seen yellow baby quails. Oh and is this ok to keep them in and what to feed them all I have is medicated chick feed.

Look like A&M's to me. They should be eating non medicated gamebird/turkey starter

I have some kitten food. I read in the sticky to give then kitten feed. The tsc store didnt have any game bird feed

 

[citalk2much]

No turkey starter? Grind the kitten food it will work mixed with non medicated food

Nope all they had was chicken feed. What will the medicated kind do to them?

 

[citalk2much]

There are people on here that feed it and say they have no problems

 

[lane-h]

Can I feed them just the kitten feed

 

[citalk2much]

I don't think I would do that I would mix it with the medicated feed

Thanks for your help. This is kinda spur of the moment stuff . My wife said the little boy has been bringing them to school all week hid in his bookbag. The school finally called his dad and talked to him about it.
