As for tip number 6, house them as a pair!
Too often you see people mention 1-2 or even 1-3 as 'best practice'.

I've got a couple of pairs that if I wouldn't stop them they'd raise 5-6 clutches, which wouldn't be good for the hen's health.
Also tip number 7 (but its for bird keeping in general) don't breed too many young, always keep in mind the space you'd need to foster them. If you start breeding something for the first time start with 1, maybe 2, pairs. This is part of the reason I'm preventing them from raising more clutches, I don't have the space to house another 20 adult quail. They'll get their next round next year if the space becomes available again ;)

You inspire me! I finally moved my caged quail into a very natural environment and was amazed at how much less cleaning was necessary. I put 7 quail in, and when I took them out for cleaning...I had 12!!!

Dear Mr. Aviary, I have said it before, and I will say it again, I very much enjoy following how the birds in your aviary are doing. This video was of great interest to me, because I like quail, these little ‘chickens’. You gave those interested very good advice. I was particularly interested that one should have naturally-raised quail in order to have them set. This doesn’t surprise me. Like many breeds of chickens, the setting instinct has been bred out of them. You have a lovely apiary, and, if I were a quail, I would be happy to have a home in it. It was very nice to see that the hen hatched five chicks this time. I hope they all thrive. Sincerely, Larry

Thank you for a very educational video :). I have a few pairs of kingquails that never wanted to brood or start nesting on their cages. As soon as i let them free in the greenhouse they made nests and are now caring for their second group of little baby quails. So, like you said, the environment is very important to get them broody. Even the fathers are great and are helping with taking care of the chicks.

I love the effort you've gone to in providing a great environment for your quail. They've very lucky compared to most!

I love your mentality and attitude towards this cute little birds, the world would be a much better place, if everybody would provide natural environment for their animals. I have 6 quails in a 5 meter long run but I take them sometimes to a mobile cage and pull them around the garden to discover every corner and eat as much worms and bugs as they can find. They enjoy it so much, that they start to jump around if they see me coming :) They know, I'll take them for a "walk" :)

My quails make their nests in plastic plant pots turned on their sides and half buried in the substrate. Also my males help brood the eggs with the females and are good fathers.
