Baby Quail

Have you guys ever seen little baby quail running around in a line after their mother? It is quite possibly the cutest thing ever. The other day Brandon's mom found some baby quail who were either abandoned or their mother died, and being the animal lover that she is, she kindly took them in. They live in the days travel pen and eat crickets. One of the little babies has a crooked beak, he looks a little retarded, but is so cute, we call him "crooked beak". I am waiting for the day the little birds start following Brandon's mom around the yard in a little line like she is their mother. How cute would that be!!
