I heard that cedar shavings are bad for buttonquail, so I went around my house and collected some spruce shavings. Will these be okay? All the debris is either leaves or pebbles we mixed in. ( sorry bad photo quality.)
One more thing! I am thinking of keeping 6 female quails. They will be housed in a 5 by 5-foot pen with a 3 tier coop to the side. Each tier will be 2 ft tall. Will this be big enough or will they fight? Also, they are purely for laying purposes so no males.
One more thing! How much room do banded and elegant require I heard they are smaller than the other quails mentioned above.
Also a saw a video of person keeping 1 male california quail with 5 females. Is this possible?
