Yay for quail ladies! They do love the ground, I feel they would be sad without it. Its the same as hardware cloth, it is expensive. I was really grateful to find some left over, perfect amount for the aviary.
Not sure about bob whites vs coturnix. I think I just got lucky with mine being sweet. Thank you so much for reading! I will have to check out your page my quail sister.
I just posted about my first hatch! :) I think in general bobwhites are more skittish. I guess that's fine by me! I don't want to get too attached! Hehe.
Cool! I'm heading there to check it out now, thanks for letting me know.
