I did a deep clean on the aviary yesterday.

The last preparations before winter comes!

I didnt make a video of it, unfortunately. The quails were even helping (=getting in the way by climbing on the shovel or taking birdbaths on the dirtpile every.single.time)

The quails seem content enough with the new bedding XD

Especially this one:

Already pooping everywhere again too :/ You wouldn't believe how much such little birds poop. That was squeaky clean yesterday

Update on the quail chicks! They have joined the others and are doing well.

One male:

(Of course the fancy looking ones always turn out to be males >_>)

And two females:

The other one is in the foreground here: ( she looks really similar to some of the others)

Quails again! The 2 wild type ladies i got are the chillest quails ice ever had. Not interested in food, dont care if i walk around them, dont care if i pet them. While everybody else goes crazy over mealworms or salad/grass etc they barely react.

Everytime I see them theyre sleeping somewhere.

I was kinda worried that they might be sick, but no, they just prefer lying around.
