This afternoon, we came home from church and discovered that one of our quail chicks had escaped their little box home. It seemed that it was nowhere to be found.
We looked under the couch and chairs in the living room. We really hoped we wouldn’t find it dead somewhere. Stephen went into our room to grab one of the flashlights that he keeps by the bed and saw something moving. It was the chick.
It amazes me how a creature that’s barely two inches high can fall a good three feet, go across the living room, through the kitchen, and around to our room. I’m just glad that we found it. It was cuddled up with a stuffed animal that was laying on the floor.
Needless to say, their box now has a mesh cover over the top!
