Yolky Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 now that Omlet are selling eglus AND quails. The quail package is £340 and the quails are £8 each apparently. I have to say I am tempted to start saving now...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I was wondering that-I don't want quail though, but I would like some bantams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 There is one... right at the bottom of the forum page.... I'd have quail like a shot if I had the time and room. I don't think an Eglu is an ideal home for them though - you need to be able to access the whole of the run easily as they lay just anywhere, not in a nest. It's also best to have a double door system as they are great escape artists and will squeeze out of any hole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willow Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I'll have to look at the package. I love my eglu enough I have 2 and would love something as easy to clean etc for my quail but I cannot see how it would work and since they hardly ever use the house it would be rather expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy-Mama Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 Just had a look and cannot see the quail package, please can someone point me in the right direction? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 I don't think an Eglu is an ideal home for them though - you need to be able to access the whole of the run easily as they lay just anywhere, not in a nest. It's also best to have a double door system as they are great escape artists and will squeeze out of any hole. I thought it would be a good idea to have them in the eglu, but I put the male quail in the run and he went mad and started boinking to try and get out. I think the run would need some padding and it would be better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
