Our Quail story started Early In 2020. We hatched, brooded, and raised over two dozen quail...only to loose them all because the door was not latched 😞. We tried again and hatched 16 quail in July 2020. This has been an excellent adventure and we highly recommend anyone with space (which means you 😉 ) raise quail: they are tiny, fit anywhere, are fun to raise, and will help you get a little bit closer to self sufficiency!

Excellent job and well built - It's also big enough to give them a sand bath - I use a seed tray with a cover to keep down the amount of sand scattered - with a hole at each end for them to enter and leave - I know they will probably lay some of their eggs in it but it does keep them healthy and mite free - I put in a little DE and grit to help with shell formation - they pick what they want out of it and it's all natural....!

I like the design. Good job. Dewalt makes a 1/4 crown stapler just like your Brad nailer that anchors the wire down solid. A sand box for the birds keeps them occupied. For the cage the only real change I would make is to put the door in the center. So you can reach the whole cage more easily. I also cover the bottom third of the doorway with a piece of wood. Keeps them from hopping out but I can still reach everything well.
Your roll-out is genius.
Great job Aaron.

quail eggs are much thicker than chicken eggs so there's less of a chance that the little eggs will crack hitting the wood but I guess if you're concerned about fractures when you're incubating, you could use a thin foam weather strip on the wood. Thanks for sharing your build.

I like the design of the quail coop. However, its obvious they don't like the hardware cloth. Looks to be hard on their feet. I would love for hubs to make this for me but will have it sit on the ground to make it easier on their feet. This will also give the quail access to grass. I've had quail for almost a year and they don't have a dust bath in their current pen. They've never seem to need it. Thank you for the concept for the coop.💚
Excellent craftsmanship and a cool pair of shades. I'm in Australia and keep my quail in 2 x 1 x 1 meter (6.5 x 3.2 x 3.2 ft) cages on the ground. The bottom of the cages aren't meshed so they nip at fresh grass all day and dust-bathe. Am yet to get screwed over by foxes!

This looks pretty cool but when I built my cold frame it had the tendency to lean so I was told that a criss cross between the front and back legs would stabilize it. Did you have trouble with stability?
