So my chickens are passing away sadly, and although they were great I'm interested in getting into meat birds so I don't have to get too attatched. I figured coturnix quail would be a good starting point, good meat, relatively easy maintenence, and good eggs! I'll probably just recycle my chicken pen as the new quails' home. Like I said in the title, dimensions are 10x5x6 in feet, I'm curious about how many I could fit in here. Since the holes in the chain link are probably big enough for the quail to slip through I plan to fortify it with chicken wire. Otherwise everything is setup, roof, predator proof, bedding, etc.
