solar light with timer

[Dan Clark]

I have a small quail hutch that i want to install lights in. im looking for a light with a timer and and a would like it to be solar powered. does anyone know of a unit that i can put in a small space to light the inside of my hutch? im looking for something to fit in a two foot by 3 foot space that is only a foot tall. this is for a quail not chickens so there enclosed area very small since they are small birds.

Don't think there's an 'off the shelf' solar light with a timer.
Most come on at dusk then go off when battery charge runs out.
What is your goal/reason for the light?

I’m looking to extend laying season I’m starting my quail late and want to max out my first year of eggs because I plan on butchering and replacing my birds every year and a half to maximize the egg laying in my small back yard hutch

You definitely need a timer then...if quail are like chickens...any hiccups can really throw an wrench in the egg laying 'machine'.

I’ve looked into it and founding nothing pre built. If you find something let us know.

Another option I’ve looked for and can’t find would be a stake for Christmas lights that is solar powered. Why don’t these things exist lol???!!!

My experience is, that you don't need exact science. Mine layed the whole year, just by the unregular shine from my livingroom to the balcony.

Need something to light the inside and unfortanitly I live next to creek so I have to put birds inside the inclosure to keep them safe from raccoons that try to get them all night. Been trying to catch these things but they keep getting away from trap with my bate. Smarter then my dog she got caught twice in there

Everything I’ve seen says Christmas lights work fine, I just have no way to power them in my yard.
