RE: Why Quail? Well We Just Processed And Packaged ~100 Pasture Raised Quail
6-7' is pretty impressive. We raise jumbo coturnix and haven't had experience with bobwhites or any other type. Is that what you have? I'm 6'3" and almost always have to bend over a little to try and catch them in mid flight.
I have a mix of jumbo and standard coturnix. Perhaps it's the smaller ones which can gain more height. I've had bobwhite in the past and they are actually quite controlled flyers. They will go onto a roost at night.

I had no idea bobwhites would roost. Very cool!
We didn't, when we first got them! Lol We moved them to an old aviary, thinking they'd live on the ground and found them lined up on the top perch that night. When they can't roost they sit butt to butt on the ground in a circle.
