What happens after baby quail hatch?

After baby quail hatch, they quickly emerge from their eggs fully feathered and capable of walking and foraging for food almost immediately. They rely on their parents for protection and guidance, as they learn to identify food sources and avoid predators. The mother quail leads her chicks to suitable habitats where they can find seeds and insects to eat. In the first few weeks, the chicks grow rapidly and develop their flight feathers, eventually becoming more independent.
