My friend purchased 6 coturnix quail at a local 4h fair. 3 of them are white with a brown spot, 3 are brown.
The three white ones are all not doing well. They are all eating chicken crumbles and drinking water, but they seem to have swollen eyelids (one or both) and bare, featherless patches on their backs. The eyelids and bare spots seem to be pink and bumpy. The birds seem a little listless and don’t startle as easily as the others. Please let me know if you have any ideas on what could be wrong with them.
