You’ve got Quail! Widespread across New Zealand since its arrival in 1862, the California Quail is a striking, unusually beautiful game bird, with a forward curling black plume that sits on a gorgeously patterned black and white head. It has a sweetly curved black beak, a pair of white “eyebrows” and sturdy black legs that hold up its rotund, almost perfectly round body. It has a distinctive and frankly charming call of “chi-ca-go!” and its mating rituals are..unusual, to say the least. Our California Quail has been a long time coming, and we’re thrilled to welcome it onto our shelves, and into our hearts!Makes an ideal gift for loved ones who dress excellently no matter the occasion, for people who wear their ponytails absurdly high on their head, or for lovers of cute birds!
