Why does her beak look so short? And, JMF did a project on light, conclusion was light = fatter + healthier quails.

is she an Italian? She looks like one...

Yes she is. BUT. Her sire has to be either a Jumbo Brown, a Texas A&M or 1 of 2 Manchurian Golds. Her mama is likely an Italian.

It is either the same color of the floor or it is because she is young. The older ones need them trimmed sometimes. I never have bothered.

230 grams at 30 days. I have noticed that like a draft compared to an Arab horse. She is not one to flap around and act a fool. I let her out with the rest of the family unlike the smaller birds.
