Coturnix are not sociable birds at all, they will drestroy each other, but to my experience Gambles are even worse, one of my coturnix accidentaly got on my gambels pen and in less than 5 minutes my coturnix was dead!

LOL, I have one who recently started pecking at my hand. First time it happened, I was almost floored. Now I just think it's funny.

But yeah, I'm guessing the "coturnix are friendly" people mean COMPARATIVELY friendly...the most social mine get with me is letting me pat their backs while they gorge themselves.
