    Alternative to Food Feeder

    I build mine out of 1" PVC... I look at the 1.5" pipe but it seem too big for the button quail. It goes inside the wire cage and is adjustable. I can lower it down and up as needed. I haven't test it out yet as my egg are still in the incubator... I will see and maybe post some picture later...
