    Quail chicks for Rainbow?
    I found a supplier local that had quail chicks. It is $12 for a dozen. Would it be good to offer Rainbow every now and then?

    What are the dangers of feeding quail chicks?

    I feed them to my kings and occasionally to my water python, and they love them.

    Only dangers I can think of would be that some snakes can be addicted to them and that they can cause runny poops, though I never had either of these issues.

    Picking up 3 today. How many would you feed at a time? 1?

    No dangers, but they might be a little small. Unless they’re week old chicks? My scrub LOVES quail chicks, but sometimes they’re only 6 or 7 grams each, so I feed him a few at a time.

    I feed them to Caesar. He also used to get baby chicks too. I always clipped the end of the beaks off as they are kind of sharp.
