QUAIL

Oh, this is the 2,000th post of my blog. Maybe I should go celebrate it? By eating quail eggs?


Yes, I love to eat quail eggs but refrain from doing so often because they contain high cholesterol. 


I still remember that I have seen quails being sold when I was younger. I am a pet lover and there were occasions when I actually contemplated rearing quails at home and can harvest the eggs to eat. Then came the bird flu and even the chicks from chickens were disallowed from sales anymore.


Anyway, coming back to this topic on quails. I find it amazing that they call these rubber bands for dental bracing as quails. Why is that so?
