I am almost done with my Quail coop. As with most of my pens & coops it was made from freebies that I picked up. The outside frame is a park bench someone was getting rid of. The 2X4s came from work and were part of a large packing crate for machinery. All I bought was the drywall screws, hardware cloth and 1 sheet of plywood.
My question is - do I need to put a nesting box in there for the quail? I am cutting some Oak branches for them to stand on and hide under. I will have straw or hay on one side for them to nest, but my wife thinks they may need a box. This is my first venture with quail so I am clueless. Doug
