I'm in the process of building 6'x16' pens and one is going to be for Georgia Giants. Thanks for the video 😎👍
Thanks for watching and commenting!
I just started my own little covey & tube channel. I'm really having fun raising them so far.
They are a blast to raise and have around!
Those are beautiful birds
Thanks! Bob white quail are very pretty and a great farm bird
I’ve been raising Cortunix quail. I know for them you have to have 3-4 females per males for them. Is that the same for bobwhites? Also, do your females go broody and raise their own young? Cortunix are crummy moms.
So for bobwhite quail I like to do 2 females to 1 male. I have had 2 go broody and raise there own. But generally I can’t get many females to stay on there nest for very long
Wire floors should generally be avoided because they can damage the quail's feet. They probably need a solid floor to walk on or have them on bedding
Since this video I have finished up the pin and put solid flooring with shaving on it
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 Ok good
Wire is fine. But I wait until the baby quail are at least 1 1/2 weeks old before I put them on wire. Until then, I put them on cardboard or paint masking paper.
great video cheers
Thank you! And thanks for watching
just found your video because im curious about raising bob whites. It sounds like you have the breeding pairs separated. After you incubate and they hatch out and finish in the brooder, do you move them all into one cage with no issues? At what point do you have to pair them off and seperate the breeding pairs. Im hoping I can raise them in cages and keep them all together instead of pairing them off.
Yes I move them all into one cage together and haven’t had any issues yet. Come spring summer time I will separate them into breeding pairs but I’ll leave the younger birds together
I had a friend who raised hundreds of quail on wire and no problem and cleaner
I haven’t had any problems on it ether. And it is way cleaner

Got ya buddy
I raised a bunch over the years for training my bird dog. For a while they look for any excuse to die. Once you get them to a certain point you're out of the woods.
I have definitely had issues with the chicks! I have to keep a close eye on them and make sure everything is perfect for them. But after about 6 months they are hardy as could be!
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 On my 1st batch of chicks I didn't know to grind up their crumbles and lost 13/84 on the 3rd day. Steep learning curve for me!
@@casmarykay8433 oh that sucks!! Iv definitely had plenty of learning curves ha
My quail get like puffed up and there neck look’s different from the rest and in 3 weeks one dies this is my first year
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 Quail chicks look for an excuse to die. You can do everything right and still loose lots of them. In the wild (predation of course is a factor too) I have seen numbers suggesting 70-80% mortality even in good habitat conditions after 9 months!
Awesome. 🙂
Thanks!
My quail get a retracted neck and puff up and I’m 3 weeks they die it’s one by one for me I don’t know what I’m doing wrong
What food do you feed your quail?
Iv tried about everything. And they will eat about every. But right now I’m feeding them what’s called (all flock) It’s a pellet feed.
How do you get them to go broody
I just recently had one go broody. What seemed to work was to give her a good nesting site and plenty of space. Don’t bother them much ether. Quail can be stressed easily.
I just put an order in for 60 Wisconsin Jumbo bobwhite quail will be ready the end of February or early March!!!
That’s awesome! You will love them!
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 I hatched 20 mixed corturnix quail. Went to and auction and got 108 more corturnix eggs to Hatch I'm already obsessed! 😱
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 is it about the same with the Wisconsins?
@@roxyhenderson1522 I’m not 100 percent sure but they have to be really similar being that they are both from the bob white quail family!
@@swvirginiaoutdoorsman8479 OK tysm🥰
Do you sell any quail
How old are your quail hens before they lay?
Mine took about a year to start laying
Bobwhite quail can lay as early as 18 weeks, but that’s rare. 6 months or so is about normal
very uncomfortable flooring for birds
Yes it is. But I have solid flooring in there pin that they can get to and also have roost poles up that they get on as well.
