I love your aviary. I am very impressed by how tame your quail seem. When I come close mine run away and when I do catch one, they don't sit still at all. They flap their wings and cry. It's tragic and I hope I can get them to calm down.
Thank you. I have had a hard time feather sexing my quail. I appreciate this knowledge as I’m trying to keep about 3-4 Jen for every too. Thank you so much.
I have 5, the seller said all of them are female,but, 3of them even don’t lay any eggs. I can’t find the white thing from their butts.maybe the cold weather lead they to do not lay eggs.
Yeah, they tend not to lay so much in cold weather. Short day length affects them too, so you should find them laying more when the daylight increases.
Four Kids and Ducks no real reason. I have zebrafinches and when the babies fledge the quail peck them mercilessly. Last year I put that little plant support in and covered in conifer branches as a little refuge. this year though I've just shut the quail out of the birdhouse so the chicks can fledge and get used to flying before encountering killer quail!
I am getting some quail. I was wondering, can you feed them fresh things like lettuce, carrot shavings, you know things that are left over from preparing human food?? Like you with chickens.
You can but it depends where you live. In the UK we're not allowed to feed any kind of kitchen scraps to our birds. But they will happily eat fruit and veg.
You should be fine then. I don't agree with the rules at all - they say it's for food hygiene reasons but I don't think it should apply for small keepers.
So funny! My friend gave me five quail on Sunday (4 girls a a boy) iv not got that up close and personal to them but she said the boy is more orange and less speckled. I've not had any eggs yet but they are in a rabbit hutch in the house too they are pretty cool. I have no avary/shed outside to keep them yet
How to save quail chicks in cold weather. As i keep them outside with a 100watt bulb, 1 or 2 die each night. And when i keep them inside my room with same light in a box, they dont die. Very hard to maintain. I brought 60 ,now ony 40 are alive
The chicks are very suceptible to temperature. They need 37 C. To be comfortable. The best way to do it is with a heat lamp 150 to 200 Wats. Coul be hanged above the chicks at a distance that will produce the desired temperature. Use a good thermometer. Do not let the chicks get wet !!
Hi! How are you? I'm your new subscriber. I'm from Toronto. I like your beautiful Quails, birds and everything. Your farm Is so lovely . I hope I have this kind of farm very beautiful 😍 I like your all videos. Very good information. 👍👍💖😍🥰
Once they reach an age where their old enough to they will naturally without even any incentives, I have a female I've raised by hand solo and she lays eggs almost daily
Oh my I am mind blown!!!! Great channel. I can’t wait to buy my own home so I can start growing quails. Initially I wanted to grow rabbit and chicken before I saw your channel. And those small birds are super cute, it’s like a small jungle in your backyard. seems a lot easier than chickens. Hav you ever grown chickens before? Keep up the great work!!!!!
Thanks for sharing this, great video. I have a question please Can you still eat the eggs that the females lay even though they are in with the males? Will the eggs be fertile and can you still eat fertile eggs, Im thinking of getting quail for the eggs but would also like a male so every now and then we can hatch some chicks. Thanks
Hi Stuart, yes - you can totally still eat the eggs. It makes no difference. In fact, it's better than chickens as quail hardly ever go broody so you know the eggs won't have been sat on and incubated.
Yes you can eat fertile eggs. That is the natural way. But the eggs in all birds last longer if they are not fertile, at room temperature. Of course, they have a longer life when kept in a fridge.
Hello I noticed you mix coturnix quail with king quail! Do they get along so well.? I already have a pair of king, but need to add coturnix for composting so I hope they get along truly
Geoffrey Byamukama hi. I don't know to be honest because I only have a few as pets. If I do hatch a few out I sell them on Ebay or my local paltry sites via Facebook. But you can always google about it.
Good grief!Now I know what they are!Thankyou!Had a pair turn up in my very rural garden.They got quite tame and I started giving them bits of whole-grain bread.Then one disappeared - I was sad.Then they both turned up at the back door with chicks!
Wow, they are generally not very good at hatching chicks because of the way they have been farmed for hundreds of generations that instinct got mostly bred out
Okay I suppose he should treat them like shit instead. Sound better? Now imagine if all industrial animal farms were actually as caring for animals as he was. So if you eat meat from factory farmed animals, shut the fuck up.
Hi, you said you have your quails in with your finches, do they attack the finches or are the birds safe if they land near them? Thanks for sharing your info.
Hi Michele. Yes - the quail are in with the finches and are fine with them. BUT, they DO get attracted by fluttering baby things so when my finches are breeding I shut the quail out of the indoor quarters. That means the fledglings have a chance to learn how to fly first as the quail will peck a baby to death if they have the chance.
I have heard that it’s a liver discharge and has nothing to do with reproduction. Sexing quail adults is sooo easy. Just need to find the right instructional material and give it a go
He touches the poo. He rubs the poo. With bare naked hands😂 When he squeezed the merengue out, and wiped it off with his finger, I so thought he was gonna lick it up. I don't mind poo, but I won't be rubbing it with my bare naked hands and play a bit with it 😂🤣
I have box wood shrubs in pots and then passion flower and clematis growing through from outside. The boxwood seems pretty resistant to most birds and also grows in shade which works out well.
U def couldnt free range those things . i guess they're ok if u can't have chickens or free range chickens . the eggs are tiny like 4 eggs to make 1 chicken egg. snakes got all mine. ill stick with chickens i let them free range and they have virtually no cost to me and tons of big eggs
If you have a female coturnix they do pretty well. I heard that from a button quail expert on @backyardchickens. For safety check on them for a couple days and make sure no fighting. Then should be fine to leave them with the cots.
Hi from Australia, I really like your backyard farm. And the information you provide. Cheers 🤗
Thanks Julie!
Me, terrified as the meringue finger gets closer and closer to his face.
Lol! 🤣
When he said it has the same protein as an egg I was terrified he was going to have a taste 🤢
I love your aviary. I am very impressed by how tame your quail seem. When I come close mine run away and when I do catch one, they don't sit still at all. They flap their wings and cry. It's tragic and I hope I can get them to calm down.
Holy shit you touched it with your finger.
I just chummed buckets.

Wow that was really interesting, thank you for sharing.

Mating foam is present in young quails?
Never !!
also that loud cherp is only the males
Great channel, thanks for the information. Why do you have the circular fence in the corner of the run?
Four Kids and Ducks no real reason. I have zebrafinches and when the babies fledge the quail peck them mercilessly. Last year I put that little plant support in and covered in conifer branches as a little refuge. this year though I've just shut the quail out of the birdhouse so the chicks can fledge and get used to flying before encountering killer quail!
Wait- are those quail perched in your trees? Or is that another type of bird???
You can also tell by their spots
I am getting some quail. I was wondering, can you feed them fresh things like lettuce, carrot shavings, you know things that are left over from preparing human food?? Like you with chickens.
You can but it depends where you live. In the UK we're not allowed to feed any kind of kitchen scraps to our birds. But they will happily eat fruit and veg.
@@BrimwoodFarm I live in the USA. Strange why can't you feed them instead of wasting food that they would like?
You should be fine then. I don't agree with the rules at all - they say it's for food hygiene reasons but I don't think it should apply for small keepers.
@@BrimwoodFarm are we allowed to process them at home in the uk.
Give em corn they get fat on that 😂
What do you feed them?
I have 2 look like those goldish ones. How do I know if they are female or male
Hmm
The man just explained that. See the video.
What kind of shrubs do you have for them
Many thanks! I really DID need to know as I my first batch are coming out of the incubator any day now. 👍
Happy hatching!
can you do a video on what pets you have?

Can female quail produce eggs with out male
Once they reach an age where their old enough to they will naturally without even any incentives, I have a female I've raised by hand solo and she lays eggs almost daily
Yes they can!
Wow, what a great video, i’m learning a lot, that I never knew before

Great informative video.

Thanks for sharing this, great video. I have a question please
Can you still eat the eggs that the females lay even though they are in with the males?
Will the eggs be fertile and can you still eat fertile eggs,
Im thinking of getting quail for the eggs but would also like a male so every now and then we can hatch some chicks.

Thanks bro....
Gosh you"re so nicely spoken but then you talk about culling and it sends a shiver down my spine.
I completely agree.
Okay I suppose he should treat them like shit instead. Sound better?
Now imagine if all industrial animal farms were actually as caring for animals as he was. So if you eat meat from factory farmed animals, shut the fuck up.

Hey neighbor, this is an awesome video. I love my little quail. I just subscribed to your channel.
Hi, you said you have your quails in with your finches, do they attack the finches or are the birds safe if they land near them? Thanks for sharing your info.
Hi Michele. Yes - the quail are in with the finches and are fine with them.

That means the fledglings have a chance to learn how to fly first as the quail will peck a baby to death if they have the chance.
Well mine aren't laying eggs. I guess I'll just milk the males for their meringue.
I have heard that it’s a liver discharge and has nothing to do with reproduction.
Sexing quail adults is sooo easy. Just need to find the right instructional material and give it a go
in me kon se female and male hai
He touches the poo. He rubs the poo.
With bare naked hands😂

What plants do you have in your avairy?
I have box wood shrubs in pots and then passion flower and clematis growing through from outside. The boxwood seems pretty resistant to most birds and also grows in shade which works out well.
Do you have an instagram?
I do.... geoffwakeling
Feathers or ìf they go aggressive a little
Awesome
Thank u

Rollercoaster camera work gave me nausea. What was that about?
Lmao the button quail looks super small compared to the Coturnix
He's tiny!
Are they ok in together I no yours are but in general
If you have a female coturnix they do pretty well. I heard that from a button quail expert on @backyardchickens. For safety check on them for a couple days and make sure no fighting. Then should be fine to leave them with the cots.
Autchhh... u just squeeze soft n creamy mash potatoes lokelike... lol😁😁😁
I like their tiny feet when they run.... Cuteness🥰
It's so cute
Hmm your a handsome guy

Unlike humans... Hens are not femenists

Killing them after talking about them with such affection makes you sound psychotic.
Would you rather he treats them like shit?
Imagine the condition of the industrial animal farm from where your chicken nuggets came from, bitch.
