      Hi. I hate seeing birds in tiny cages with wire floors. They deserve so much more. I try to provide interest and an environment where they can exhibit natural behaviour.

    how do you keep the cage sooooo clean? Haha I heard they are messy and poops everywhere. I wonder if they could be trained like hamsters and rabbits to only poo on specific places?

    • @mygardenanddinosaurs
      @mygardenanddinosaurs  9 днів тому

      They are little poo monsters. I use a hemp bedding called aubichick. It really dries out poos and they disintegrate. It means the quail don’t suffer with poo balls on their toes. I skim the surface most days and replace as needed but the aubichick really makes it easier and much less smelly. I wish you could toilet train them though 🥴

  • @johoney5458
    @johoney5458 9 місяців тому +2

    thank you. nice to know Curly is happier. Does this difference in cage size seem to bother the older quail? mainly appetite or territory.

    • @mygardenanddinosaurs
      @mygardenanddinosaurs  9 місяців тому +1

      My intention was to have the cage as a single habitat for all the quail but boys don't always co-exist well together so I had to half it. That said, they are still very happy. I think enrichment is the key. Give them lots of interest.

    • @johoney5458
      @johoney5458 9 місяців тому

      thank you. they do seem chirpy and happy. very active guys and girls. I did not realize how talkative they are. I suppose because they are mainly ground dwellers and have to communicate through the grasses. thank you for sharing and have a blessed day. @@mygardenanddinosaurs

    Oooo, you’re tempting me, Mags! They’re very sweet. Do you get many eggs?

    • @mygardenanddinosaurs
      @mygardenanddinosaurs  Рік тому +1

      Hi Fiona. Boy do you get eggs. They can and do lay more than one egg per day. Not always but fairly frequently. I have eggs coming out my ears so to speak. They are cute little potatoes but aren’t as domesticated as chickens so def have a wild streak. They are renowned for seemingly random acts of violence against one another. Mine have pretty much lived in harmony with a couple of exceptions. Good news is that they are pretty hardy and seem to recover from quite nasty pecking injuries really well. All the best. Mags

      I skim poos off the surface every day and top up when needed. Any poos I miss dries up and breaks down in the Aubichick hemp bedding.

      Thank you. The older girls were laying up to a month ago but have stopped now that the days are shorter. They’ll start up again next year although not with the frequency of the young girls.
