I am not sure about their behaviour but if you have males a good sign to know that mating is about to start and therefore the likelihood of eggs is that they males will do a foam ball, their droppings will have some white foam on it, looks like shaving foam. A good sign that they are ready to mate!<br /> Kind regards<br /> Sara @ farmingfriends </p> http://farmingfriends.com/forums/topic.php?id=2604#post-16176 Thu, 21 Jul 2011 19:25:57 +0000 beckysquails 16176@http://farmingfriends.com/forums/ <p>hiya i was just wondering as ive never actually seen my quails before she has laid was just wondering is there any behaviours they have just before laying an egg just soi can see if shes near or not ? many thanks x </p>
