Vice President, Emerson Mnangwagwa has refuted that government banned the production of Quail birds, which touched a Zvihuta social media storm.
He said the government had never banned the production of the quails but was against poaching of the wild birds and eggs.
Responding to questions in Parliament on the reported banning of the production of quail birds on Wednesday, Mnangagwa said people had misunderstood Environment, Water and Cimate Minister, Oppah Muchinguri Kashiri.

There had been an outcry in the country as a result of the supposed ban of the quail birds.
The birds became popular with some people claiming that they had medicinal properties, which Muchinguri said was thoroughly misleading.
The supposed ban made the birds popular especially on social media where the bulk of the jokes that have been circulating this week concerned the quail birds.
