Hi All,
An update on Peeps my English White albino quail.
Scroll to just skip and see the DIVA herself!
She is delayed in learning quail things and has deficits but we adore her. She can eat and learned to drink from a cup style waterer. She typically gets in a feed bowl and scratches with her feet to eat but also recently learned to eat from the bowl attached to the side of the hutch. Finally at 6 wks old she learned to forage. She is rather hilarious because the process of learning to shuffle things on the ground has meant she will be "foraging" at all times. So she will shuffle the ground, the air, the wall, her sister... etc. But she is trying her best in forage mode.
She has some vision concerns but she can see. She also sleeps more often than the other quail but I have noticed this is just her normal. She has always slept more often since hatching.
And here is Peeps with her gorgeous egg. It may serve to give a hint as to why she is albino because she may be a double silver not an english white.
She is a total diva. She just sits, let's her feet dangle and says "twee?" if you pick her up. Peeps loves hanging out snuggling or being scratched on the neck.
We adore Peeps the resident DIVA.
Liv.
