Hello, I was able to rescue some baby quail 10 to be exact, and they are so cute and tiny they are Coturnix Quail. I have no clue how to house them. Can you show me your setups alos one quick question
Q1- I read that they lay eggs allot. Will they hatch them on their own thanks

DO A SEARCH HERE FOR BROODER SETUPS... THERE MUST BE CLOSE TO 100 STRINGS WITH IT COVERED.

AS A GENERAL RULE NO COTURNIX WILL NOT INCUBATE OR BROOD CHICKS... THERES THE OCCAISIONAL RARE BIRD.... STRESS OCCAISIONAL AND RARE


HOWEVER, THEY ARE FAIRLY EASY TO INCUBATE ONCE YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO..... DID YA BY ANY CHANCE GET TO RESCUE AN INCUBATOR TOO?

They dont hatch their own eggs well thats a dissapointment. Considering the fact that I didn't rescue an incubator LOL. And I probally wont be able to get one either...

I keep mine in a solid bottomed plastic rodent cage. It has a large door in the top, and two smaller ones on the side. Since yours are young, you could just hang a heat lamp over the top. The quail may be able to get out through the wire though, so until thay grow, a box with wire mesh on the top might be best.
