I did a search for 'quail' and it came up with zero results, which I'm a little surprised by. They could be a rarer, slower breeding, and more expensive alternative to chickens. Egg recipes would need multiple quail eggs since they're so small.
"Coturnism is an illness....after consuming quail that have fed on poisonous plants." Something could be done with that but idk what. A curio, Bad Meat?? Can be eaten but will give a sickness wound. Maybe trigger a new experience event, Queasy From Questionable Quail.
