They might be younger. 16 days to hatch from Oct 17 so maybe a week or two old

Sure are cute little things!

 

[Maryellen]

It's too bad they are aggressive with their own kind, you can only really kerp 2 together unless you have a giant aviary where they can all hide

 

[Alaskan]

Yeah... I had quail for about a year... More than one male is super bad (not buttons, Coturnix)

 

[Maryellen]

Buttons are just as bad. I would love to have more but they have to be paired up and kept in pairs, so putting them all together can't happen as they will kill each other.

It was shocking to me that they are even worse than chickens (in how blood thirsty they are).

I still like them though, lay very impressively too.

 

[Maryellen]

Mine lay an egg every day, better then my hens lol, but their eggs are soo small . I give them to the dogs with their meal and to whoever wants to hatch them. I did holow a few out and dye them lol....

 

[Alaskan]

I think they would be gorgeous as a Christmas tree garland.

However, I don't have the patience for that much work.

 

[Maryellen]

Lol me neither, I would rather hardboil the eggs, decorate them then eat them. Hollowing them out was a royal pain

 

[Alaskan]

I can imagine!
