My quails learned how to use a very little ramp to jump in the bowl filled with sand for dustbathing.

Most people find quail don’t really use ramps, steps are better. More information on or pictures of the ramp would help

It's possible for quail to learn to use ramps, but it's not natural to them. The shallower the better.

A hotly debated question! They can use them quite easily and readily but there are a few hints....make the incline as minimal as possible, give them good treads not too far apart, and side rails really help. I find that a nice wide ramp also helps them feel secure.

About 7 months ago, I made a two story cage for our two female coturnix, and they constantly go up and down the ramp all day long. Iirc it took less than a week for them to learn it. I think the incentive for them was that the bottom floor is on grass. About once a week we move it to a fresh patch of grass and hose off the area where it was.

Awesome! Do you have a picture or two of the cage you built?

I had few problems with them using raps but i added hay to the ramp securing it down with metal chicken wire and they started using it no problems.
