Have you tried this method?
Thank you for sharing this, done so calmly and quickly and without showing too much, too close up. I really wanted to know how to do this, but wasn't sure if I'd be able to stomach it, so I chickened out on other videos that were too close up. This was way more manageable than I was expecting. Saved for future reference.
Thanks for checking out the video and sharing this! It's definitely overwhelming at first, but I think that's ok. Taking another animal's life is not meant to be taken lightly, but something that should be approached with intention and respect. The quail have been a great stepping stone for me in the learning process as well-it has made the next step of moving up to chickens much more approachable. Best of luck on your quail journey!
Currently have quail for eggs but started hatching out, and wanted to look into using extra males for meat,super video! Thanks for sharing
You're so welcome! Yes maintaining a healthy M/F ratio is so important for the hens too, so everybody wins! (Except the male quails...)
Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to raising my own
No problem, thanks for watching!
Great, video! I love how simple this tutorial was and the effort you’ve put into your videos is also great- you’ll grow pretty quickly I’m sure!
Hey Victoria, I'm so glad you enjoyed this video on Coturnix quail! I appreciate the kind words, thanks for checking out my channel 🙏
Thanks for sharing. We are thinking about raising quails this year. You made the process so simple.
Thank you so much!
My pleasure, thanks for checking it out! Quail are a lot of fun and very low maintenance, you'll love it. What breed are you leaning towards?
@Slowsteading I have been reading, and it seems that the coturnix or Japanese quail would be the best for meat.
Thanks for replying.
@@simpleperrydiselife We had Coturnix and they were a great dual purpose, if you have any interest in eggs. They lay cute little easter egg-style in speckled blues. And the males grow out quickly. Worth checking out!
this is so sad but i'm glad you posted it. maybe I shouldnt eat meat.
😂😂 meat is tricky like that
I'm new to your channel and I have enjoyed watching your videos. I am nearing completion on our mobile chicken coop, but will be renovating our current stationary coop. I really enjoyed watching your build and may incorporate some of your ideas. Well done, sir.
Thanks for checking out the videos, and thanks for the kind words! Glad to hear these videos have been useful for you. A mobile coop sounds awesome, will it be a type of chicken tractor?
@@Slowsteading Hey Mike, yes, it's a chicken tractor. I loosely followed another channel's build and added some metal to the A-frame roof. Also ordered something called Chicklifts (not paid), a wheel system that attaches to the tractor. Hopefully they work well in helping me drag that thing across the property. Thanks again. Looking forward to your next video.
@@kevinhart1044 woah very cool, I haven't seen the chicklift before but that looks like the perfect solution for moving a heavy chicken tractor around. The landscape is quite hilly at my place, do you have a flat pasture area at yours? Let me know how the Chick lift works for you!
@@Slowsteading So, there was a bit of wood twisting where the lift attached. I added the extra wood, which they advised to do. I should have braced the corners with metal prior to moving it. I have since moving it, which is crucial. I wish the wheels would raise the coop up higher, to account for uneven terrain. It is a very useful tool though.
@@kevinhart1044 That's great to know, thanks for sharing! Sounds like it puts a lot of strain on the structure, hopefully the extra bracing helps prevent any further issues. Would you say it's worth the extra expense?
Oh awesome! I’ve not heard of this channel yet but always great to have more quail friends! Are you US based?
Thanks for stopping by! We are just over the border in Canada :)
Cool and slightly gross
Haha yes and yes!
'Processing' 'dispatching' ... funny how we use language to hide the reality of what we do
"Beef" and "pork" instead of cow or pig follows the same logic I guess
It's more for social media. While it is getting better. For a while there words like kill or slaughter would get your videos taken down. It's just a way of being kind.
