Re: Raising Quail or Chukar

I'm not sure on the exact measurements needed per quail, I think it's 1x1 each. The one you have pictured looks to be a 40' flight pen which you should be able to fit 400 Adult birds in.

Re: Would anyone like to sell me a used e-collar?

I have a Garmin Delta that I purchased a few months back that I paid $169 +taxes - I'd let it go for $125 and you pay shipping.

The reason I no longer need it is I purchased another collar with the locator beeper on it.
