Sadly they both didnt make it

I think they may have been stampled on by the other 2 quails in the cage.

so sorry to hear that FM...
whenever I get baby quail once they've all hatched I move them into a big plastic storage container (you know, the rectangular opaque ones) with mouse bedding in the bottom, as well as an upside down flowerpot with a hole cut in it as a doorway.
I only put the mother in with the chicks, just to be safe.
The boxes are only $12 or so, might be worth investing?
