King Quail are lovley little birds , easy to look after .
if you have kids or want a more "cuddly" type of Quail then japs ...they don't reproduce on their own
eat anything , give edible eggs ( my other birds love them boiled ) and are easy to handle , mine let me pick them up and even the odd escapee doesnt run away when I catch them back .

Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.
