[The Bantam of the Opera]

I'm sure its not a chicken, im afraid i dont know which section to put it in, sorry.

 

found in a bush being bothered by some dogs, i,ve done some research and think it looks like a quail, and a domestic type at that. maybe a courtnix? its definately a baby too.

 

 

 

 

if it is a quail i guess ill have to get him a quail friend. i read that quails and chickens cant be kept together.

 

he's eating and drinking too.

[Joojoo]

Sorry i can't help with what it is, but he/she is gorgeous. Well done you for rescuing it

[Ain't Nobody Here]

No idea what he is, but he's very sweet . Lucky him being found by you in time!

[chelsea]

I dont know either but I think its adorable whatever it is.

[The Bantam of the Opera]

yeah she's so lovely, although im not sure how i seem to accumulate these animals.

 

[edit] and i've decided to call her Chibi, which is a type of really cute japanese drawing.

[Snowy]

It does look like a white quail - Dilly hatched some out not so long ago

[moomin]

She's very cute, and Chibi is a lovely name it really suits her

[The Bantam of the Opera]

yeah that's what i thought, anyone know any nearby quail breeders, id like to get her a friend. lol

[Olly]

sorry Jem, no help - just wanted to post to say it looks gorgeous, and obviously you were destined to find him/her ... the Quail of Fate!

[The Bantam of the Opera]

haha, just like my chicken of fate, cleo. i wonder what is next. lol

[faverollehen]

Orr its a Cutie!

 

Its a CPQ

 

Chinese painted Quail,or Button Quail

 

is it quite small ish??

[The Bantam of the Opera]

yes it's very small, about the size of a large egg.

oo can you tell me about him then?

i'd be very grateful.

[bronze]

Yup white cpq

 

try http://coturnixcorneruk.forumotion.com/ for all your quail info

I don't know if its male or female but its not normally as simple as just getting them a mate.

[Egluntyne]

It must have escaped from somewhere.

 

Why not advertise around the neighbourhood?

[The Bantam of the Opera]

yeah we thinkit must've escaped too. my sister has been looking after it for about a week and no one knows where it came from, she's asked around all poultry places nearby. it is good at flying though so i assumed it mustve come quite far. so she brought it to me to care for.

 

and thanks for the website link, reading up on it as we speak.

[Abbey Road Girl]

It does look like an egg with a beak--so lovely! Lucky it came to you and not predators.

[*mummy_hen*]

That is a quail....a very pretty one too. My sister has two - they are usually very skitish so well done for managing to catch it.

[hils78]

Oooh what a little beaut. Def a quail could poss be a very young Japanese quail...

If you're looking for a home for it let me know or if you're looking for friends for it we have 7 eggs in an incubator at the moment

[The Bantam of the Opera]

thanks for the kind offer hils, but we are moving in 2 - 3 weeks so i think ill find him a friend when we're down there. until then ill give him lots of hugs.

 

im glad i know its a quail now, i thought it might be a dove at first.

[hils78]

A nice diy mix for quail is plain finch seed mixed with chicken chick crumb. Plus the usual grit & treats & sand baths

[The Bantam of the Opera]

okay will do! at the mo he's on chickecrumb and i've got him a cuttlefish bone because i read that's important.

he's just so dam cute!
