It seemed like a good idea to come home in the middle of vacation. I think it may have been a good idea but it’s been a busy day.
Laundry is done. Shopping is done. Co-op is over. We still need to reload everything.
Rascal, our pet quail ::::snort::: is still alive. We bought him a cage today and will pick him up in the a.m. so that he can spend the next week with a new friend. Heather will watch him. We hear he’s been getting out of his box….The manager at the pet store printed off a lot of info for us on raising a quail. He said they used to sell them but no one around here would buy them because they are everywhere and can go out and shoot them etc. He recommended we buy an 8 ft cage…YIKES. We may have to add on to our home.
Co-op went well. I need to go pack things away. One funny: I bought these little bags of Sundrops last month. They came in 12 and we had 8 left…so they are a TREAT. WELL….when I was inputting Melody’s order she had Sundrops on there and I thought “I should order some more”. I copied the number, changed the quantity to 12 and clicked order.
Hmmm…next time I’ll have to bit more careful about my order. {G} We have lots and lots of treats. 12 big bags…We also got a case of organic graham crackers – I know – I KNOW – I have the recipe to make them but honestly…I have to get out of the kitchen and mentor my children sometime….so I bought them. They are all things that Zander can have….and best yet there is a recipe to make crusts with honey so I’ll give that a try for fresh strawberry pie….
Really need to get going with a few last chores…..tomorrow will come early. Just found out its Fiesta week in San Antonio…argh. We function so much easier in smaller crowds…We also found out that it is supposed to storm all week at Canyon Lake…BUT that it is supposed to be in the 70’s and 80’s and that will be nice. We’re excited that we’ve heard from three families so far….we’ll do the zoo with Tingles on Thursday, Sea World with Lowes on Friday, spend the night at Raths on Saturday and see how many other folks we can fit in. {G}

Our cage for 4 quails was not 8 foot! More like 4ft by 3ft (the largest folding wire dog cage we could find!). So I would say for your one quail, you would not need that big a cage! They lived in there till they were released at about 12 weeks.
