Button Quail?

Does anyone own button quails, my mom and step-dad might buy one or two and I'm just curious about them as I'm pretty lost when it comes to game birds. :C

I have a blue male and have been looking for a hen but can't seem to find one anywhere (the breeders would not sell me just one bird even though I offered to pay $10 for her -they go for $2 each)

I've also tried looking for quail - there are some places online where you can order fertile eggs, but they'll usually only let you buy in bulk, as they assume you're raising them for profit. :\ I've also seen people selling fertile quail eggs and chicks on craigslist! I'm afraid I don't know too much about them, as I haven't looked very far into them beyond just checking to see if they were even obtainable in the area.

Edit: I do, however, has a friend who has them! Her tumblr is here if you want to send her an ask.
