I have 9 coturnix quail that are just over a month old - and they were living all together in a 30''x30'' rabbit cage - I moved 4 of them to a 24x24 cage though the other day. That day, I noticed one of the jumbo browns was acting strange. I think it's a roo..... he is walking kinda squatted (doesn't walk as tall as the others), but is also walking backwards mostly! He does it all the time - he can walk forward, but he mostly walks backwards. I didn't notice this until just a few days ago. He was going to be my 'keeper' roo, but now he's not, LOL. What could be going on with this guy? Any ideas?
