Mum Plucking Bubs.(quails)

Featured Replies

Posted

Hi all, I have 3 baby quails plus parents. I have noticed babies losing feathers and thought they may be moulting. Yesterday found Mum plucking the feathers.Dad has been great with them but it's Mum doing the plucking. Have caged chicks away from both parents, they were fully feathered.Is this normal and will feathers grow back? I haven't bred them before so thanks for any help. :D
