Choose the best feeders for your coop

WUS Quail Supply Quail feedershen raising quail, providing the right feeding and watering solutions is essential for their health and growth, from the early chick stage to adult coveys. High-quality feeders and waterers not only promote optimal nutrition and hydration but also minimize waste and contamination, ensuring your flock thrives. Explore our extensive range of quail feeders and watering options designed to suit every stage of development and accommodate both indoor and outdoor setups.

There are 4 main types of feeders; In cage and cage mounted "trough style", small and large "gravity fed" designs, "Less mess" feeder ports (custom fitted into buckets, 6" dia PVC or other containers, and cage mounted "J-box" or "J-Feeders".  Some Chick feeders have a low lip, dual trough design for feeding chicks on both sides of the in-the-brooder chick feeder.  

TIP: Feed need to be kept dry.  Consider adding a protective housing or coverage device to protect against rain if your feeders will be outside.

 A 'less mess" quail feeder for large "community coop", or flight pen hutch.  The aluminum feeder ports are specifically designed for quail.  You can find 3-D printed feeder ports but they are more for adult chickens.  We like the metal forever-material vs printed plastic, and you can install these on any bucket.  We suggest a 4 gallon, semi transparent or "natural" bucket with a poultry red lid.  Note that a plastic bowl in sealed to the inside center of the bucket in the photo so that the feed is distributed to the outer ring and therefore... "good to the last drop" (or crumble)!

US Quail Poultry supply - Quail waterers and drinkersProviding the right feeding and watering solutions is essential for healthy quail, whether you're starting with chicks or managing a covey. Our selection of quail feeders is designed to accommodate various stages of growth, ensuring that your birds receive a balanced diet tailored to their nutritional needs. From adjustable feeders to gravity options, each product is crafted to minimize waste and promote a clean feeding environment.

TIP: Quail Chicks are very small.  Even regular sized chick "gravity" drinker options made for other poultry will require marbles or small pebbles in the drinker ring to prevent drowning.  Special Quail Chick drinkers (picture on the far left) is the best option as the drinker ring is narrow enough for the quail to not get trapped in the water ring and succumb to lowered body temperature during the early week of growth.

In addition to feeders, we offer a variety of watering options suitable for quail of all ages. Automatic waterers and simple trough systems promote consistent access to fresh water, helping to keep your birds hydrated and thriving. Browse our extensive range of products to find the ideal solutions that suit your quail-raising needs and fosters a healthy environment for your flock.  Want to go "pro"?  Member benefits of the USQuail Cooperative  offers the advantage of wholesale pricing, more choices and increased "commercial" offerings and group discount purchase options for large equipment.

TIP: When chosing a drinker system, consider automatic water "systems" that use watering cups or horizontal and vertical "nipples".  Also note that if you live in areas that are subject to frezing temperatures, a reservoir feed system with the nipples can be made "freeze resistant" using a circulation pump and a special temperature regulated bucket heater.  Its not always going to be summer ya' know!
