What to add to this coop?

Averageavian · Jul 5, 2022

Hi! Reused this old rabbit hutch and turned it into a coop for these coturnix (2/3 in pic). So far I have three food sites, three water sites, 4 ways to hide, and a few plants to cover. What else should or could I add to this to make them more comfortable? More fake plants? Real plants ?

That looks very nice. I was going to say dirt bath, but it looks like they have plenty of clean dirt for that.

Toys or perches is all I can think of. Some chickens like mirrors or other colorful things (you can find toy packets for chickens on Amazon). it looks amazing

These are quail. They don't use perches. They might use a mirror but I'd be afraid of a roo trying to fight it and get aggressive.

This looks great!!! I wouldn’t change or add a thing, they should be very happy with the habitat you’ve created! They love both open spaces to stretch and bask in the sunshine and places to hide. You did a wonderful job being thoughtful of reducing territorial behavior with the multiple feed/water stations. :clap
