Tell me about it! Their food is in the house and I think if it weren't for that they would never go in. BUT. You all told me that from the get-go. Your'e so smart...;)
I may put theo ther tree  in there too on its side and see how they do with it. If I get ambitious. It's supposed to come up a big snow this weekend so I should get on it...

Not yet... I know. Procrastinator. Had to get tires on the car this morning and our new mattress was delivered this afternoon. Still need to get on the bird care....
But I'm figuring my trip to Zanesville to meet my college roommate for lunch tomorrow is out of the question... 6 inches of snow just doesn't sound fun to drive an hour in. grr....

If your pen dimensions allow, you would get a larger usable area of shelter by laying the tree on it's side. 

That's a GREAT idea....I've heard that somewhere before I think... :grin:

Lay it on it's side on the wire floor.  I do it all the time with cedar trees I cut from the fields and fence rows.  You can also put prop the trunk a couple feet up against the side of the pen to lift the tree some on one end letting the top of the tree rest on the floor.

It not only gives the birds something to pick at, it provides a hiding place, and will groom their feathers as they walk through it.  by the time I remove it, the birds usually have stripped all the green and bark from it.

I finally got around to adding some hay in and around the tree today. I think they appreciate it...;) Some of them may see their little quail lives flash before their eyes tomorrow. If it doesn't snow too much Robert and our friend Brian may take some to release to see how things go with the dogs. I'll keep ya updated!

So, they recovered 9 of the 10 they took! One of the 9 was a little too damaged to bring home.. s53  Have the breasts in the fridge so I'll let  you all know how we decide to cook them up! Believe it or not he said he felt a little bad when he was cleaning the birds up afterwards... s020

Looks awfully little on this end. Is that what they call a "pot pie"?   Looks like one to me, about 3-4" round?  Must be really small quail...........where did you get them scrawny things?  They where probably malnourished.   s47

  I see Quail breasts (4), with bacon, and corn bread dressing.  The 10 year old was right, young eyes do work better.   j16
