I've heard it referenced before that people have kept quail in the bottoms of aviaries that house various species of parrots.

The thing is, I also have a pet lovebird. She’s down the hall and I’m keeping the door to her room...
Hello!
I have a 4 yr old single female named Opal, who I'm fairly sure is broody? Lately, she's been being very... "flirty" with her toys, and I've noticed her frequently hanging out in the corner of the bottom of her cage for the past couple of days. She would come back up and want out though...
The prices of bird training perches and playstands can be outrageous.
$40, $90, $394, etc...

Drilled a few holes and used some...
