She did an awesome job with this:

My DH bought me a new set of kitchen cutlery for Mother's Day. The set includes a nice sharp pair of kitchen shears. He knew I was upset with the whole botched deal so he took me to Macy's and let me pick out a set. I love my DH. Yeah!

If you intend on leaving the birds whole instead of breasting them out, get a boiling pot of water and throw the dead quail in it for about a minute, then take the quail out and the feathers can literally be wiped off and it looks like a store bought chicken.

The wing trick that Monarc mentioned works great on ALL fowl, i use it a lot on ducks!!...............Jason
