My quail cage is complete! :)

Finally completed the project and I couldn't be happier! I think the quail LOVE their new home.

Looks great! Where did you get the water dispenser?

Amazon. They are called bottlecap waterer. You can use it with 2 Liter bottles, too. Mines are just a liter each for now. The black velcro straps are my addition. The springs they came with didn't work for me.

Nice!!!

Really nice! Good to see they have a sandbox and cover, too. They look really happy.

I'm especially proud because I built it all by myself in a week and a half. Never did anything like this before and I designed it all from scratch (after looking at many similar DIY quail cages).

It's them nice and toasty. They are only 3 weeks old and it's in the 50's at night, so they have a 50W lamp for a while. I think they like it. All 16 are in there.

Awesome... I put 50 that were 12 days old outside 3 days ago. Lows in the mid to high 50's. I had two heat lamps on each end of the cage. They were mostly feathered but their belly still had chick feathers so I added pans with shavings for them. They did perfectly fine... I've been waiting until 3 weeks but I'm probably going to start at 2 weeks now since its warming up.

Is there just sand in the sandbox?
