Zombie quail? You have got to be kidding. They're so sweet and adorable! Why, look...

Honestly, the very i -- wait, what?

Eh, so they're eating each other. Too bad, so sad...huh?



What are they doing? WHAT ARE THEY DOING?



"Hey, kids, what are you up to...hmm, that cat looks pretty good."




AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH! RUN AWAY! RUN AWAY!





"Dear LJ Abuse..."

EEEEK!!!

Yeah, it's the cute ones you've got to watch out for, isn't it? (You're keeping an eye on Teddy and Ida, aren't you? Just in case.)

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

They are hiding in the closet. Ok, not really. Teddy is laying on my chair while I perch on the end and Ida is laying over my arms as I type.

Did you see the picture of Ida I posted on your random pics of the pet Halloween costumes?

Aw, what a couple of (adorable) pests. Missy is nestled in HER SPOT on the couch. When she wants attention she meows. (It's my job to go over there and serve.)

Yes, I did! (Did you see my response?) She is, as ever, a darling and beautiful girl.

Is that a past cat of yours in the icon?

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Aw thanks! The icon is just a silly pic I found online.

I just realized the poor thing is wearing a hula skirt :D I hope they didn't make it play the ukulele!

...and your icon, OMG!

[aviv-b.livejournal.com]

Yeah, head on fire!

LMAO! This is classic. I loved making that Gif and this is the purrrfect response.

I got my quail yesterday and will be posting pics of them and Ruby Dee and Rose (nylund) later. My Ruby and Rose are just pissed they have to share their cage. Speaking of which, I am going need a bigger one quick. I didn't expect to get 26 quail yesterday, nor ones almost full grown. Jeeze!

[rose-cat.livejournal.com]

Glad you enjoyed it :) You got your quail fast! Are they the Japanese ones?

I am going need a bigger one quick.

Umm, I think you're right. I didn't think it would be nice to link you to it, but when I was googling "zombie quail" I came across a real-life story about the results of overcrowding them D:

[i-want-2.livejournal.com]

Yeppers, I was hoping to get them Monday, but the guy was only here on Tuesdays and Thursdays. They are the Coturnix Japonica, aka Japanese Quail. People call them Coturnix here. My old Ag teacher called them what they used to be commonly referred to, Japanese Quail. So, I call them that. Coturnix is the family of quail the Japanese in. It's like calling U.S. citizens americans, we are only one breed of the american family. but the best known.

Let me guess, they started to eat each other. Pigs do it all the time. Wouldn't surprise me if the quail got a little zombietastic.

Actually, some of them had feasted on other's brains D:
