Quail in my classroom? #870219

Asked May 26, 2024, 10:50 PM EDT

I want to keep 6 quail in my Prekindergarten classroom with time for them to also be outside. I have very strict hand washing procedures in place the children follow. I have a rabbit in my classroom for 8 years with great success with extreme cleanliness. Do you know who I ask for permission? Thank you
