Very sad news.

29th July, 2013
Zebedee passed away.

She was breathing heavily, not moving around, eyes closed....a little bit like how Rusty was a couple of weeks ago. So we thought we'd leave her and see how she is later.

Well, things didn't improve, so I booked an appointment with the vet. Within 15 minutes from making the appointment, she passed away. 

We took her body to the vet anyway, as we recently lost Dougal and we wanted to make sure there wasn't anything bad going on in the quail house which could potentially harm Rusty and Ermentrude. 

The vet did an autopsy on Zebedee, and said she had Peritonitis. Couldn't tell what caused it, but there was nothing anyone could've done to save her. 

Sorry Zebedee. You were a very good quail, full of character, a little bit smaller than everyone else and always had a spiky hair-do...

Thank you for the eggs. We miss you.

It's the second winter in the qrazy quail land. With just Rusty and Ermentrude in the house, we thought we need to make sure they have all the warmth they can get. 
They now have a heat lamp (just heat, not light). Their house is now warmer than the house we live in....

This is their own sun. 

This is their own Christmas tree.

MERRY QRISTMAS! From Qrazy Quail.
