That’s your call to make. The biggest issue I see would be it slipping into the gene pool later if you do decide to breed your quail. Realistically you’re not going to raise that quail alone and separate from the others. If its a male he will top the females and if a female her eggs will fold into the other’s eggs. If you absolutely just know that you aren’t going to reproduce the quail ever, then not an issue. But it will be tempting to do so once they start laying cute little eggs.What if I don’t plan on breeding him? These are just pets.
