My first Quail. A mini blog.

Finally!
I haven't seen her eat yet, but she finally went into the enclosed portion of the hutch.

I haven't seen my girl go into the enclosed part of the hutch all day. Or eat either. But she was right in front of one of the feeding ports, maybe an inch away, as if looking in that direction.

I'm hoping she learns quick. Without a group of birds walking around and interacting she has to figure everything out on her own. Unless I help her and shoo her into the enclosed section. But she seems to be warming up to me more in the hutch than when she was in the brooder. I don't want to shoo her anywhere.

It's getting down in the low forties tonight. Hopefully she at least figures out there is a warmer area with pine shavings. And food.

She'll be fine.
