Raising Quail During the Winter: Coturnix Quail in Blizzard Conditions

[@TheThriftedPlanter]

Very nice set up! I'm thinking of getting Quail and am researching set ups and care. New Subscriber!

[@bluepsiongamer4909]

Your birds are so lovely. The one you held seemed so calm and the others were tame too.

[@Dina-kf2ls]

Thanks for another good video. Hope you and yours had a great Holiday!

[@mrs.newsom9235]

Hear in South Texas we don't usually get snow. I stopped by just to see what you had to offer. Your quail are beautiful. Great job with your care. Love the pink cap!

[@jajatus2002]

Finally a vid on keeping these guys outside in the cold I live in Maine and we get the same weather. I'll check to see if you have a vid on your set up. Thanks man.

[@donnasouthwood]

They're all looking very cozy and comfortable. Your birds are beautiful!

[@NYCoturnix]

Thank you!

[@OFFGRIDwithDOUGSTACY]

good for U! Nice to have some food security

[@NYCoturnix]

Its a good feeling - definitely wanting to do more

[@andrekoen]

I started raising quail because of your videos…53 birds!!! Thanks for what you do!!!!!

[@W5DMH]

That is encouraging for me in Michigan, I have an unheated barn that has a great spot for them. We have seen -20 temps in the past, is that something to worry about? Also how do you keep your water from freezing?

[@timboslice3090]

Man this video makes me happy that I live in Texas.

[@NYCoturnix]

I bet lol - all this snow is a non-issue

[@ellenlutz3526]

Were in Texas?

[@thedouglaspodcast]

Truuu.. I’m in the desert Az and love 9 months of the most gorgeous weather on earth. Buttttttt……….. I’m sooooo dreading 3 months of summer coming up 😅 I know you are too. Don’t even lie Lmaooooooo

[@xadamlaax]

Great video my man

[@killianb776]

I just got mine on Christmas eve - I'm keeping quail in Akron,thank you for all this wonderful information in all your videos. Keep it up,don't freeze! Also my wife loves you're fingernail polish.

[@NYCoturnix]

Nice! Congratulations- I hope its as rewarding for you as it is for me!

[@pclapp4879]

Your birds look great, Kenny... whoa! you got hit good - we got about 2 inches down here. Gotta luv lake effect! LOL Keep warm!! =)

[@ThereSheGrows504]

You could drape plastic over the cage, it will keep humidity in. And snow out. They will be nice and cozy.

[@hal7ter]

Humidity and dampness are not good. They need ventilation, protection from wind and drafts

[@ellenlutz3526]

Pretty quail,I love texas,I have 3 females and 1 tuxedo male, They will be 5 weeks old tomorrow. I love them,had them for 3 weeks now.

[@joeandsueoffgrid]

Nice!

[@LolliPop_Farm_VT]

Love it, I’m in Vermont in Zone 3a, so cold….

[@lauratukey3584]

Definitely excited to see someone in the same climate! Do you have any prefab Hutches your fond of or do you find it's better to just make your own with winter and the same wild animals being a concern in your state and mine?

[@thepurplecraftshack3075]

Thanks. Interesting. I'm in FL my daughter and her hubby are in WI. They will be homesteading and will have lots of questions for me. Now I can help with some cold weather stuff. Or just send them to you. Both lol. I also might look like I know something about quail lol

[@samanthaolson42313]

What do you do for your watering system in the winter? Also….why do you do the apple cider vinegar spray on them? Do you just throw your other pen into the flock down below?😮 I always have to do an intermediary cage so it’s all neutral ground for both groups. 😂 I would love to learn your secret!

[@mountainridgefarm986]

Is there a roof over your hutch?

[@MsSoul2013]

I've decided to get quail instead of adding to my small flock of chickens. Learning from you!

[@raven_grows]

Do you remember what the temperature was that day?

[@wildlyunpopular]

My neighbors are very close to me. Do you think the quail will bother them? I have chickens (hens) and they are "chatty."

[@lennoraa9300]

Great video, I liked seeing the birds in their hutch, the birds look so healthy and happy, you have beautiful birds

[@NYCoturnix]

Thank you!

[@diannt9583]

My quail also did well during the recent snowstorm- I'm in western MA. Fortunately not a need to dig much of a path to them. Only 14 quail so far, though.

[@NYCoturnix]

Lucky you! I wish you the best!

[@jbid9999]

Thanks

[@KristineRiegelmayer]

Newbie here-haven't gotten any yet, but why do you spray them with water and ACV mix?

[@Ranchomartell]

Why do you spray cedar vinegar for ??

[@NYCoturnix]

When adding new birds, it confuses everyone and keeps them all occupied graying to preen the smell off. They're too busy to attack each other

[@Ranchomartell]

Thank you always learning something new

[@barbann675]

Great video :-) I will be getting quail eventually and preplanning my setup and your videos are very helpful. I just wanted to share that I add some splashes (maybe 1-2 tablespoons per gallon) of apple cider vinnegar to my outdoor animals water to help lower the freezing temperature, also helps with over all health and parasite control (has vitamin c in it) and makes the bunnies extra frisky, lol...puts the does in heat easier. Anyway I hope that helps; it works amazing for me. Works great for my chickens water too, and never have had to deworm them or ever use any chemical.

[@jackhenson232]

Bro your doing your thing have you ever shipped any quail ? Its good to see everybody on the wave

[@machinegreen1911]

I just picked up 18 chicks on Christmas Eve.This will be my first attempt at raising quail. I will move them from the brooder to the garage at the end of January. Guess I don't have to worry about the cold.

[@stephenbrown2922]

We just started with quail out here in Thailand. I know how brutal the weather can be in Buffalo. With my first wife (who was from Tonawanda, living in VA) I went up to see friends in Toronto staying overnight. The weather was clear but cold in Toronto but as we approached Niagara Falls on the way back there were signs of snow. From Niagara Falls (NY) the snow deepened as we got closer to Buffalo. Since we left around 24 hours before there had been 24 inches of snow and we nearly didn't get back to Tonawanda. That year the Bills made it to The Superbowl............Go Bills!

[@NYCoturnix]

Greetings! And thanks for watching - im hoping it doesn't get any worse than this until I get a new snowblower lol

[@ellenlutz3526]

Were In NY? I'm originally from Brooklyn but now I live in texas

[@NYCoturnix]

Buffalo! Go bills!

[@KlausM4]

That white one is like "Take me out, take me out, hey, human, take me out" 😂😂😂😂

[@LugoLeticia]

Can I purchase quail from you? I'm in NJ.

[@hdsquadrides3370]

Hello just found this channel I’m from the 845

[@hdsquadrides3370]

Would u sell some eggs so I can start my group ?

[@marytaelliott]

Sometimes they pick on each other when there is the ratio out of wack, I have 1 male for 5 females and that is alright for my birds 😅

[@Michelle_Collie]

keep that white one,, she likes u lol
