Encouraging Laying Quail…
Ideally... in my mind's eye In small spaces; Free roam/greenhouse/etc....... Aviary/ Runs/ Pens/ Hutch/Nesting box; safe place to lay an egg away from Roo’s area coverage ( a dark spot to hide) Rollout cage: forced conditions and no choice to lay in place Give the Roo’s a time of separation...- FatherFalcon

Best Quail Cages
I have looked at cages from Wylona Ranch and Hatching Time cages. I know that neither is rat-proofproof due to the egg rollout. What if I put the cages in a shed? In the other half our chicken coop we have a walk-in storage like shed. Is it bad to have chickens and quail relatively near eachother?- winterwolf4
