| Question about Pets:Can Quails be caged in an aviary with Budgies? |
Usually, there is no problem doing this. I have kept quails (chinese painted 'button' quails) in mixed aviaries for 11 years and have never had a whisper of a problem. This included with budgies.
Like someone else said though, it depends on the individual, as well as their environment. Some people do have problems. And budgies in particular can be very aggressive. So keep a close eye on them.
Also with quails, note they can be very vicious towards each other, sometimes fighting to the death. This usually happens if you keep a few females with more than one male. The males will fight each other. They may even seem to get along fine for a long time, but I have found it is usually just a matter of time. Females can be aggressive too, to both males and females, but that is a lot rarer.
So if you can, have a few females with only -one- male, or keep males together with no females.
