outside pen for 6 wk old quail

I totally would take pictures but i wont have a camera untill christmas, hopefully! Not even a phone to where i can upload pictures. Ill try to explain. My inside box right now is a 10 gal aquarium. i have 2 of them and 5 quail in one of them, and 5 in the other. They are lined with papertowels and changed out every day or every other day depending. My fully grown adults are in wire cages with cover. The plastic storage container i am talking about it long and huge with a wire bottom. I used to have baby chickens in it untill they got old enough to survive without a light and all that. Fresh food and water everyday. I think what i am going to do is move them from inside to outside in the plastictorage container with a light to see how they do and then go from there. I figure it is worth a try right

I think it's worth a try. You'll have to keep us on how it works out. With the bigger space, more than two 10 gallons and lots of ventilation should work out pretty good.
