Yes, it's his mature temper, not your fault at all; some roos are aggressive. It happens. I feel sad for you and your hen. She deserves a kind mate. Any way you could re-home this roo and get another one for your hennie? You are a good quail parent, they are both lucky to have you. :hugs
Aww yay! I am SO glad she laid a normal egg today! That is great news! :ya:yesss:
Yes, keeping them with a wall between them where they can still see each other will be best. I wish you could have at least another hen. I hope things get better!
I am sorry, this is so sad. I am not familiar with quail but I do know with chickens, mean roos are hard to deal with. Also, in nature, males will breed multiple hens. He may be frustrated by having only one hen...
I just read your thread about her laying abnormal eggs. Sometimes healthy birds...
