depends on age, housing etc.....usually after 3-4 weeks they do fine with normal poultry waterer......but there’s always the occasional dummy......i lost one of my egyptians this morning next to the heater in subaviary.......my guess is she got too close for too long during weather that did not require accessory heat for a 5+ week old coturnix!Sold 15 of the scarlet/range quail. Going to be very specific with the people who buy them about the waterer. They need to do rocks, marbles, or something in it or they’ll have no quail.
