I Found out the hard way that this galvanized wire is not good for their feet for it causes bubble feet however i noticed that after added a sand box in the cage it stopped happening to the new ones
Yes. I keep this cage on the ground for that reason. If you’ll notice I also wrapped the 2x4’s inside the wire so they have a place to perch and rest from the wire if need be.
Their poop lets off a LOT of ammonia. They get very stinky, really fast. Technically, you could keep them in your room, but I would strongly discourage it.
@@DossFarm Right? Technically, you could keep a raccoon in there too. Doesn't make it a good idea! 🤣 But seriously, my 10 day old single quail in the brooder already stinks.
Where Chase @ get him 2 reading that tape measure! My nephews about had a heart attack learning 2 read one. Crazy kids these days. Homeschooling math lesson
Curtis Ep 😂 Oh we have a small carpentry business named “Case Customs”. He can read a tape measure & has ran a saw or two since he was old enough to stand up to a radial arm saw. Built his own bed frame & computer desk. He’s a gamer in his free time but he’s no slouch. I wouldn’t have it any other way. Thanks for watching & commenting as always bud. Stay safe & good work being an influence on those nephews! #lifeskills
Why not 2x2 lumber I know almost the same cost as those 2x4s. But I’d rip them down middle then you could be Terry. @CC The 2x4 profile gives more area for poop build up. A couple 3/4 x 2” strips to support the floor wire will help support that thin gauge wire. 1/2x1” welded wire is a very good floor material. I like the 1/2 for the other panels. Helps keep the mice out. Why did they put the blade on the wrong side of your saw. The worm drive version and the 20v saws have it right.
I like the ease of this build. But you do realize what crapping little eating machines these little guys are right? I've had my growouts in a pen for a week now and there is more than an inch of shit under their cage already. Great for a garden but damn that is alot of bird shit
Winner of a video, been searching for "quail farming for profit" for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried - Eeyila Rudimentary Expediency - (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? It is a smashing one off product for discovering how to raise healthy and fertile quail minus the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my mate got great results with it.
I really like your catch tray, because they are easy to remove, empty, and wash. I too watch the Sawyers, they are good people.
Been building box wire pens in my garage floor for years 🤣 always come out perfect
Love your sense of humor. Great video.
😎👍🏻

Quail don't perch
Thanks so much for this video!! I feel confident I can build my new quail a useful home this weekend on my own with little time and effort. 👍🏻👍🏻
I like the scaramic tile idea. I have a lot of those left over 😊
Nice little build. We can’t wait to get some!
I’m ready for y’all to have them as well! I need meal ideas 😂!
Wow them birds make some crazy sounds lol
Sweet, nice job on the pen sir, them quails are gonna love it for sure!! Dan
Happy birds taste the best! Thanks Dan!
Very useful tutorial. Thanks! The tip about staggering the staples was especially helpful.
You’re welcome. Thank you! This cage is still going strong. I’ve built two more just like it.
Hi the sound funny I don't believe I ha e ever heard one before. 👋🙏❤🌻God Bless you
Hi! This looks great! I am just about to get 2 quail chicks. What type of bedding/toys should I have for them? Could I keep this pen in my room?
You can keep them in your room but it’s gonna stink 😉!

My toddler provides plenty of smells 😂

LOL you had me with only 2 genders 😂😂😂😂
True story
How many quail maximum per cage, would you advise? Ty
No more than 12 in here. Keep in mind the number varies whether you have males or females.
1:06 AYOOOOOO! 😂
Your building skills are awesome. Nice job
Appreciate it 👍🏻! Good editing helps too 😂.

Thank ya! Goofy and noisy 👍🏻
Great bachelor pad build.
Appreciate it! Thanks for stopping by! I checked out your channel as well! Great stuff! 👍🏻
Do you have any problems with snake around your ped
This is great! Thank you for sharing!
Nice pen! How many cuts did you come away with after working with the hardware cloth? I can't do anything without getting a few!
Around Michael's Barn Oh I quit counting man! 😂 I’m not exactly “safety Steve”. No gloves, ear pro, or eye pro. Not wise.
@@DossFarm Who has time for all that?!?! lol
How’s that lock/latch working?
I would never keep birds in a cages like that you outta be ashamed of yourself!
very nice job on the pen
Thank ya Thank ya. Working on the female pen next!
Nice to you both. ❤️🇦🇺❤️👍👍
Nice job. Whats the soundtrack? I know it but its bugging me.
Chris Evans Thank you. Not sure on the music bud. It’s just free UA-cam studio music 👍🏻.
Will does hand staples hold?
Good work

You’re welcome. Thank you. 👍🏻
What tool we need?
😆😆😆😆 love the video
Quail jail...gotta have it...next stop...bacon wrapped...
What size is the mesh?

Thank ya! Now I just need to build about 10 more 😂!
Adler Farms jeez lol. Sound like me and the rabbit caged
What size is the wood??
What size boards do we need?
sir your hardware cloth is floating-
No idea what you’re talking about
What size are your staples
You can clip a little off the top beak and stop the pecking don’t clip to much
How many quail will this hold?
Depends on how big they are 🤷🏻♂️. There’s a video link in my description with build plans. That’ll help I’m sure. 👍🏻
@@DossFarm your link is not working.
@@ajalicea1091 then the man that made that video took it down 🤷🏻♂️
It actually doesn’t hurt their feet
Pease explain the machines used sir
I’m not sure follow bud? The tools?
👍👀💙
Can you the comment measurements?
How do you tell a male from a female

Yes I’m aware. I move the cage around daily. Hose it out occasionally. No trouble at all.
