I just got our new quail (5-1 male and 4 females) thursday evening.
This morning when I went out to check and them, one of the females is puffed up. Not just like she's cold, but the feathers on her back are standing almost strait up.
I have a feeling this isn't a good thing.  dk2
Any ideas? And what to do?
TIA!

Not real cold. It's in the upper 60's, lower 70's. They have just been moved, but I just don't know what to do for her.

I had some quail like that some time ago. One died and necropsy turned up enteritis. Only had a problem with this one time.
