My almost 6 week old chicks mixed Japs are presently happy in an old poultry ark, in the garage with a lamp providing light and a little heat 24/7. My dilema is this; should I move them to their new rabbit hutch home http://www.yorkshirepetshop.co.uk/rabbitshack-triple-rabbit-hutch-with-underrun-new-p-1226.html outside on the patio.(it is reasonably sheltered but it is cold in Preston) where they can benifit from daylight rather than a damp dark garage ...

Would this be ok? I was planning to hemcore the run and put a clear cover over it. I don't want to move onto the next part of my planning if its wrong.

Not been here for ages!! I have been away down south for 2 weeks visiting family. I have come back to japanese quail that have changed sooo much, it is amazing!! The Japs are soo much calmer than the CPQ. We have a poultry auction on Saturday, last year there were quail there so I may get tempted on some more Japs. I am going to get some pictures see if you can get any ideas on the sex yet. The japs make more noise than the CPQ too, I find the noice very peaceful. Now my question ...

We haven't actually got our quail yet cos we want to make sure we've got all the facilities in place first - especially with two inquisitive Irish Wolfhounds, Clydesdale horses, a border collie and a cat! What we want to know is, having had chickens who are quite happy to go back into their housing at night, are quail equally easy to shut away each night or do they have access to an aviary 24/7?
