Yay guys I got my new quails yesterday, they were both hens and in return I gave a male.
Ones a silver and the other brown, very cute.
Got home from school today and already noticed she had an egg and was sitting on it. Doubt it was from her new mate but the previous one.
Photos soon, only if use want to see them though?? :D
