Hay codornices en esta tierra, que se llaman zuli o zulli. Son tan grandes como las de Castilla. Y son de mejor comer, porque tienen pechugas como de perdiz. Tienen el pico agudo y entre verde y pardo. Son de la color de las codornices de España. Corren mucho. Ponen muchos huevos. Sacan a treinta y cuarenta pollos. Comen maíz y chían.
\nLos machos destas aves se llaman tecuzoli. Tienen grandes pechugas. Tienen el pecho leonado y pintado. Tienen un tocadillo.
\nLas codornices hembras llámalas ohuaton, y son más pequeñas que los machos. Hacen sus nidos algunas dellas angustos, cuanto una dellas puede caber; otras hácenlos anchuelos para que quepan dos. Y ansí échanse el macho y la hembra sobre los huevos. Pero en el que es angusto remúdanse el macho y la hembra. Críanse en jaulas.
