Yeah, better watch out what you say! I'm a licensed wildlife rehabber, and I tend to know (at least in general) what's legal and what's not, and how to contact Fish & Game to report fishy activities. Just a heads-up.
I'm sure glad I have my coturnix way far away from my chickens. All the way across the property!
"Hello?.........Is this the Game Warden?.......I'd like to report a violation that I read on an internet chicken message board. There's this guy named Rubberducky that released a bobwhite in his backyard out in Butte Montana".
This thread has horribly degraded from chcikens spreadin' the Bubonic Plague onto unsuspectin' quail, to internet message board snitches. But hey, it's the quail section, and that's how we roll.
