    What made you happy today?

    The godson actually made a decision for himself today that wasn't just go with whatever was easiest. He listened to what I said, listened to what his dad said, then made a choice that was his own, not simply choosing one of the paths we suggested. This is actually a huge stride forward, and it...

    BYC's 52-week Photography Challenge. Week 4: (Jan 26 - Feb 1, 2026). Theme: Books!

    The grey thing off to the right? It sure is, and it's memory foam. I have gone up there with a book and fallen asleep on it several times. It can be hard to hang out in there for long periods because my cats aren't allowed in there, and they make the most pitiful sounds and shove their paws...

    BYC's 52-week Photography Challenge. Week 4: (Jan 26 - Feb 1, 2026). Theme: Books!

    My old house had a library, but it was about 1/4 of the size of the one in my new house. The builder just did not understand why I wanted so many shelves. He finally go the idea when he visited after I'd unpacked my books. I also have a media room that is not as big as my library, but also...

    PLEASE HELP URGENT SICK QUAIL

    They'll adjust. They may miss him for a while, but animals are quite good at "life goes on".

    PLEASE HELP URGENT SICK QUAIL

    I'm sorry to hear that.

    King quail keeps limping

    I'm guessing injury. It doesn't look bad, and quail heal fast, so he will probably be okay.

    PLEASE HELP URGENT SICK QUAIL

    It really depends on what's wrong. Without testing, it's hard to say if it's injury, disease, or the quail equivalent of a cold. I will say that for a quail to show its illness that much, it's feeling really bad. From the looks of him, I suspect illness rather than injury. Can you cover his...

    PLEASE HELP URGENT SICK QUAIL

    He's definitely sick. Separating him and putting him in a warm, dim place is the first thing to do. Do you have any Nutri-Drench? If so, see if you can mix it with a bit of water and get him to drink a bit. Boil and egg and crush up the yolk and see if he will eat that. Are any of your...

    Quail Coop

    I'm not saying that it isn't possible, but it's not a good idea. The best environment I've ever seen buttons in was an aviary that took up almost all of the person's back yard, with a tiny stream (about 2-3" wide) running down one side. The companion birds in there were finches. I would love...

    Things you wish you could say

    Impatience is a poor excuse to harm/injure your animals.

    Balls of poop/ food/ bedding on tips of quail toes

    You are unlikely to find a fast method that will take those hardened poop balls off without taking some toes.

    Things you wish you could say

    I love that show. Makes me wish I had a working TV so I could pull out my DVD set of the show and binge watch the whole series. My computer's DVD drive doesn't work right either. *sigh* I need new electronics.

    Things you wish you could say

    Many do, but the ones that don't annoy me. Sometimes I want to read the whole story behind it, but I want the option to skip it!

    Help talk me into quail (for meat)

    I forgot the most compelling argument for them as meat. They're delicious! https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8AKDZ9NpcmGRSF-6vcvoL3OP2K-laGvu
