So they just get the softfood, or is there another bowl for seed? Mine do make a lot of mess in their seed bowl (typical BQ platelet manoeuvre), despite it being in the deep kitty litter trays.mr.fox wrote: The quail are just fed their softfood from small, flat dishes at the front of the flight and generally most mornings I just scatter a small handful of finch seed on the bare sand for them.
So you just leave it in there, and scrape up the dirtier areas with a dustpan or something? I imagine it would be very good for insect production!mr.fox wrote:I add to the leaf litter throughout the year, cleaning out the worst of it as I go
The softfood sounds very similar to my own (couscous based) recipe, I might try combining mine, yours and VR1s all together and see what happens!
Thanks for all the advice
