Agree with that, Cameron - and I've been driving for 50 years!

So if you don't like driving into Edinburgh don't ever drive south of Manchester!!!

sorry this is a major deviation from quails isn't it!!!

I'd love to have quails - they are ideal for dog training HPRs, but I had heard they are difficult to keep as they fight, and are prone to draughts ???

Boys together might fight to the death ... but I've seen the damage hens can do to each other just idly pecking!
Ours live out all year round, even in minus 18 & deep snow.
