The great popularity of Chinese Painted Quail (also know as Button Quail) among aviculturists comes only partly from their tiny size and vibrancy of color. A large part of their popularity results from their availability and ease of care. It matures at six weeks of age and will lay an egg every day of it’s life if it receives a proper diet. Chinese Painted Quail can be raised totally on commercial game bird feed as their nutritional requirements are very similar to Turkeys. Do not feed them a ration prepared for laying hens or chickens as there is not enough protein in these feeds.
This book about these little birds will be of immense practical value to beginners and long-time aviculturists alike, because in it the author spells out how to breed them and how to keep them healthy. This is a book of 160 pages with color prints and b/w photos.
Chapters include: What is a Chinese Painted Quail? Buying - Basic Housing - Basic Care - How to Raise - Keeping them Healthy - Some Common diseases - Some Common Parasites - Index.
