Greetings. I'd like to make a pen that the coturnix quail will over winter in nicely. Thinking a 4x4' pen for 50 birds. I'd also like to make house/roost for them to go in when it's cold (southern maine, it gets cold). Thinking of making a 6x4 platform that both the cage and house can sit on. Then be able to move either the house or cage off it, if/when needed to move it. That way I can put a light bulb in it for heat if needed, and for light for winter laying. I've never raised these birds before, but have raised chickens numerous times. Thoughts on my house/pen design?
