Starting to come together

So I got all moved in to my house, and I am instantly overwhelmed with projects. It's an older house, but not too much. It was built in the seventies, and needless to say, there is a huge list of things that I want to get done. Once we got all of our boxes moved in the house, I knew that I needed to build a hutch or run for my quail. Previously, they have been in a parrot cage and I could tell they didn't like it. They didn't like walking on the bars. Anyway, so I spent a weekend making a super nice run out of 2X4s, plywood, and chicken wire. In this hutch, I have a nice place for the quail to take shelter from the elements, with a ladder for them to climb up into. I finally finished it, and put my quail into it, and all they want to do is run around on the ground. They don't fly up onto the perches I built for them, just the ground. Had I known this before building it, It essentially would have been a wooden chicken wire cage. That's the only part of the hutch they use. Anyway, so that's set up. I can check that one off the list. They should start laying eggs come spring. They may start now, but I don't really want to run a heat lamp out to the hutch. I also got my rabbits moved over. I am fairly certain that a few of my females are now pregnant, but I'm still relatively new to rabbit raising, so we'll see in about 30 days. Ok, so I also am starting my fish raising production. so far, it has cost very little, and looks promising. I bought myself a 55 gallon barrel locally for 10.00. I invented a minnow snare, and caught me a group of rainbow trout minnows from our local pond. I currently have them in a fish tank, and they've already started eating commercial fish food(I thought it would take longer for them to get it). The plan is to get them a little bit bigger, and then transplant them into the barrel. Further updates to come.
