You remind me of a significantly nicer and well rounded version of my dad. 🙏 Thank you for all the great content. I've been binge watching your page the last few days for quail content while mine are in the incubator.
I have a pond solar spotlight aimed at one hutch and they are laying like a dozen eggs, another hutch I have outside without a light, has no eggs. Tested. True.
Unfortunately I am not set up to ship eggs. I sell a few here and there locally but I can't ship out eggs. I would suggest Myshire Farm or Whiskey Tango Farms for ordering eggs.
Appreciate the video! One question what about extremely jumpy birds i go out into by back yard and they seem to freak out every time always have running frantically from one end to the other. Wondering if this is stopping them from laying, hopefully i dont need to restart and get a better line thats less skidish.
Hi Chris! I have a question about your watering system for your quail. I'm looking to make the same semi-automatic poultry watering system for my quail and rabbits, which are housed in a similar set-up as your quail coop. However here in Belgium, the winters can be cold (14°F) and water freezes often. Do you have cold winters and if yes, how do you prevent your water from freezing?
I don't have a solution for that unfortunately. I just take down the system in the winter and switch to watering the rabbits in bowls. I have been using an electric heated waterer for the quail that works well. It is in my Amazon shop if you are interested - www.amazon.com/shop/slightlyrednecked/list/22NJMLUFUZO8D?ref_=aip_sf_list_spv_ofs_mixed_d
Sort of unrelated to the video, sorry about that.. but I was actually making plans to build a hutch based off your video showing your build. I think I have a full part list figured out for everything except the hardware cloth. I was wondering which size it was, lots of people seem to recommend the 1/2 in stuff for outdoor use, but I was wondering if you knew what you used for this design. Thanks!
yes, 1/2 inch hardware cloth is what I use. If you can get it you might want to use coated hardware cloth for the floor. If it is coated, I would go with 1 by 1/2 inch if you can find it. Hope that helps.
Hey im in Texas its hot long days i have some jumbo coturnix browns. They are all 9 weeks old now. My roosters started crowing this past week and they are breeding my females i just seen yesterday. None of my females have started to lay eggs yet. Any idea why no eggs but males are mating the females
Hi Chris have a problem with one of the quail she wasn't eating or drinking for day or too not laying i thought she was egg bound but can not see anything. Shee is sitting with eyes closed mostly.. i got her to eat something today but she won't drink anything any advice would be great 👍. Got lucy i put water in a syringe feeding her droplets for now
Hi Chris i am in Australia my quails have been laying eggs about middle of April and all of May one person said to me wait for spring but my quails had never stopped like this before. I have seen some of the males don't have foam anymore why is this Chris i you can help me out. And my hatch rate is 1% down too do i need to get are new blood line and mix them up?
Thanks for the share would you share exactly what brand you use for feed and any supplemental feed I’ve never gotten eggs in winter and I’m definitely going to change that since really mine are not pets Also are eggs fertile year round ?
I think he uses PURINA Game Bird 30% protein Starter. I use it for baby chicks and adults. I'm getting almost 30 eggs a day. I have the lights on them about 15 hours a day.
I actually use a feed from a local feed mill. MFA Agri Services 30% protein game bird starter. Brand is not really that important though. As for fertile eggs in the winter, yes, a light on them will keep the hens laying and the roosters breeding. As long as the eggs don't freeze they will still be fertile.
It stays on until the battery runs out. Sometimes that is all night long, depends on the charge. They seem to do fine with it though and still get their sleep.
Hi i live in a small town is bit noisy from dogs and sometimes cats at night, is there a way to keep the quail calm as iv still no eggs and its coming into the spring
They should adjust to that just fine. If you don't have lights on them to extend the daylight that is probably the issue. Just give them another month and they should start laying as the days get longer.
@@Slightlyrednecked hi i put a red light on a timer they started laying the other day thanks 👍. One question about fertility, i know you can candle them to check or crack the eggs to look for it but can you tell the day after laying if its fertile? I cracked two open and one was fertile.
Hey Chris been a while hope all is well with your and your family. Was wondering if you have any quail eggs for sale. Were would I message you to talk about the eggs if you do.

Thank you for the kind comments. And thank you for watching. Good luck with your hatch.

I have had the same results when I have hutches without lights on them.
He is the only way
Chris, hey man thank you for all the great content. I have learned so much from your channel. Do you sell any eggs? I need some for hatching.
Unfortunately I am not set up to ship eggs. I sell a few here and there locally but I can't ship out eggs. I would suggest Myshire Farm or Whiskey Tango Farms for ordering eggs.

Hi great info
Glad it was helpful!
@@Slightlyrednecked you teach really well. Thank you. God bless you according to the will of the Lord.
Thanks for the share would you share exactly what brand you use for feed and any supplemental feed
I’ve never gotten eggs in winter and I’m definitely going to change that since really mine are not pets
Also are eggs fertile year round ?
Search his TH-cam channel he did a video on the feed he uses
I think he uses PURINA Game Bird 30% protein Starter. I use it for baby chicks and adults. I'm getting almost 30 eggs a day. I have the lights on them about 15 hours a day.

You rock
How about a light with a motion detector feature? Wouldn't turn on if they were "sleeping", right?
I don't know if that would work or not. I always thought it would be going on an off all night long but I don't really know. I haven't tested one out.
Quail definitely move all throughout the night.
Hi Chris
I had a large rat problem and the stopped also i found high protein feeds gave bigger eggs .
Interesting. I may have to test the protein out myself.
@@Slightlyrednecked 👍
Quick question, do I need a special incubator for quail eggs?
no. Pretty much any incubator will work.
The solar light comes on, then does it stay on all night? Do you turn it off at a particular time? Do the birds still sleep?
Thank you.
It stays on until the battery runs out. Sometimes that is all night long, depends on the charge. They seem to do fine with it though and still get their sleep.
@@Slightlyrednecked
Thank you very much for your prompt response.
Hello it’s me with another question. Quail feed: in my area there is only 17% layer but it has selenium in it. Is this okay?
it is fine. A little low on the protein levels but I am sure that they will do fine on it.

I have a 12 by 12 shed that the cages are in. 14 hours of artificial light get eggs every day
Sounds like a nice set up.
Hey Chris been a while hope all is well with your and your family. Was wondering if you have any quail eggs for sale. Were would I message you to talk about the eggs if you do.
Hey there. I can't remember if you are local to me or not. If so, you can email me at chris@slightlyrednecked.com and we can see what we can do.

I agree.
Do you believe in Jesus Christ? Jesus is the Son of the living God. Jesus said in John 14:6 “ I am the way, the truth, and the life.”
