We had 17 chicks hatch this Spring. I love seeing them grow. God puts some amazing instincts in them.
He does indeed🙏😇
Yeah, evolution is an amazing fact!
They're so cute! God bless you both Hollis and Nancy
Quail grow wild here in Reno, Nevada, and I always feel blessed when the families roam through my backyard for food and protection. I would love to raise them but we are in an hoa unfortunately. Times are changing though and their importance among laying chickens is so upgraded now that I pray I can have some raised, along with chicken egg layers! ❤ you are blessed not having to deal with that on your gorgeous property!
Good evening guys! A couple of things I have learned with quail, I like to put marbles in the water to keep the chicks out of it, that way they don't get wet either. The other one is give them grit, or sand ASAP after hatching. These two things really improved my survival rates. Coturnix are the easiest and most hardy of the quails to raise. Have a great day!!! Thank you for the content that you make!
You are doing a fantastic job with your quail👍👍👍. Thanks for sharing your knowledge with everyone. We all learn from each other ❤️
I forgot how cute baby chicks were. It has been a long time since I saw and held one. Thanks guys.
Wow they have grown! They are really starting to bounce around 😁God Bless both of you✝️
Very fast growers
Thanks for sharing with us Hollis and Nancy, that was great to see!👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
You both seem so peaceful. Thanks for the info and God bless!

You're a blessing, I am so so happy for you
This is another great intro or refresher video. Thank you again for sharing these great tips. God Bless!

Thank you family.
Peace and love.
Good to see how well the quail are turning out! You did a fantastic job hatching and raising them up. Your setup for them is top notch. Very proud of both of yall and want yall to know that your awesome mentors to so many people. Love you bunches!
Thanks for sharing a RIGHT WAY to do this project! Very helpful!
Thanks for sharing, I have 9 2 day old baby quails my son brought home from school set up here in my brooder, excited to watch them grow!
Hollis and Nancy I thank you both so much for all that you do and all I have learned from you all. You both are truly God's gift for sharing your passion and your knowledge to the rest of us. Much love here from Summerville, South Carolina;)
Thank you! Blessings
Great vid You can sex the quail As the males only have small wings compared to the females And the males are much bigger
Amazed at God’s creation!
I love the way you go week to week all in one video
Thank you. Glad you like our style of videos❤️❤️❤️
I love your channel we’ve been watching for a while now. We have 50 quail eggs in our incubator and we just love having these little guys. Also, what a great set up!
Congratulations on your quail!!! Well done👍👍👍
My goodness, they have grown a lot. sweet ...
You guys are too awesome, love the quail

❤️❤️🐶
Cute babies 🐣
Thank you for doing these videos. You handle those chicks with loving care. I know a person who knows how to treat God's creatures when I see one. God Bless.
Thank you so much ❤️
Beautiful people!
You might want to put Pebbles or marbles in the water. I saw at least one get in there. If they get wet they get cold and sometimes expire
Omg they are so adorable.
I just hatched 3 in a snake vivarium (I bought the eggs form eBay) and they are the most precious things. I'm obsessed with them already.
Can't wait for the harvest
Harvest video coming soon👍
@@HollisNancysHomestead Haha ok. At least they will have had a happy life compared to some other pour souls.
Hi! Loved your video. Subscribed!
Welcome to the homestead family 😘
My friends you did it very good job thank you for sharing , same day i will do the same.
Thank you Sandra ❤️
When I was Young (in the 1950’s) living with my grandpa in the Santa Cruz mountains I would walk along the creek that ran behind is home. As I would come up to a sandy area there were so many quail that would Lyft off that it looked like the ground was moving.
Me too , I'm in kentucky , our family farm you could have thrown a rock in any direction and scared a covey of quail up , in our pasture fields , we planned lespadesia grass if I spelled it right ?? Now they are all gone 😢 pretty much .?
Ever step on a covey ? make you poop your pants LOL !!
Quail was the mana from heaven
Good day!! Which nongmo feed do you use?? Ty
They are so cute. Im never going to AYCE quail night ever again.
Just curious why this breed of quail was chosen versus say Bobwhite quail? Love your videos. I just finished building ten 4x8 ft raised beds for our garden next Spring here in Indiana. This will triple the size of what we planted this year. We were very pleased with what our little garden space did this year so we decided to expand. The new beds aren't exactly what we wanted, but with the pandemic, materials were hard to come by here so I bought some cedar kits online. They were easy to assemble. The biggest challenge was trying to get them something close to level since our lot has a lot of slope to it. Now to build the soil in them for next year's growing season. God bless y'all!
These were chosen for the size. They make lots of meat. Larger than Bobwhite.
@@HollisNancysHomestead , ah, well, that makes perfect sense. Thank you!
It may be a long shot that anyone sees this but I just had my first hatch of quail today. Everything is going well. However I just noticed one little one is running around with its egg still attached to its bottom and there is a pea sized red lump on its bottom. From some quick research it may be a prolapsed vent… any suggestions on how to help this little one?
How strong is the light?
Very nice very professional videos but! Not enough information
What kind of feed do u give them?
Are you giving them gritt yet? God bless
Amazing how fast they grow. How long from hatch to harvest? Just trying to figure
out how many could be raised without going through the Winter in the North.
Minimum temperature that would be reasonable.
TYFS, Stay Safe and Well

They only take about 6 weeks to harvest. They tolerate the winter months very well including temps in the teens as long as they can get out of the wind. They struggle with the summer heat. The best time to incubate eggs is April
@@HollisNancysHomestead TY
Yes, about 6 to 8 weeks. Though you can harvest them anytime. They aren't like chickens where the older they get the tougher they get. It's the same for layers. about 6 to 8 weeks. They also deal with cold a lot better then chickens too. As long as you provide them a small shelter to get out the wind, they do great. I saw a video where someone had quail and it was 3 degrees outside. They did just fine , as long as you keep up with feed and water.
Awwwww they are so precious. I couldn’t stand to kill them and eat them. I understand about homesteading, but I’m just too sensitive to kill them. I would cry! Lol I understand they are really good eating!! ♥️❣️♥️
Birds are pretty and make more birds. Life is brutal even inside a bee hive where you think it's utopia. I'm a beekeeper. It's not.
I have had quail for 2 years. I have not killed 1. Even tho too many males hatch I manage them so that we are all happy. They make cool little sounds, their manure is useful. Their lifespan is short. So I let them live their happy little lives the best I can offer them. I learn a lot about their nature this way. I do not keep them in cages but either in a little house with 2 storeys and stairs that I have designed and built, or on the floor in my glass veranda. In summer I plan to keep them in little chicken tractors during the day. People feed wild birds. I decided to let my male quail live and I take care of them as my bird pets. Some have gorgeous colours eg the whole bird is raven black, dark navy blue or dark chocolate. And each male has its unique voice and character. Much fun for me.
Greetings from 🇵🇱 Poland!
I've tried hatching quail, but the death rate was terrible. I've got a brooder with heat at 95-100 first week, water, feed is a 28% protein turkey starter that I crush to make smaller. By end of first week over 50% dead, by week three 90%. The last hatch I used 28% protein medicated, that I also crushed to make smaller but death rate is still terrible.
They need a heat lamp. It is really uncommon formy baby quail to die unless they are overheated and then trample on each other and then the weaker ones will not survive. I have no access to high protein feed, and they usu get 21%, but it seems OK. I add my own high protein mix after week 1, and booked eggs a few times. All the best from Poland!
How often do you clean the brooder? I let my kids handle my quails daily and they become very tame.
I clean it at least once per week.
I know this is a old video, but did you keep the quail or did you go to rabbits like you were mentioning.
We did not keep the quail. We plan to convert to rabbits but had to put everything on hold due to horrific inflation and Hollis’ health issues. The plan is to try to get the rabbits up and running sometime next year.
@@HollisNancysHomestead I am going to get out of quail too, when it hit 115 this summer in az even with shade cloth and being under a tree, I lost a few every day. I started from 20 chicks to 6 left.
what feed do you give them?
I use Flint River Mill (FRM) Wild Bird Feed Chick starter 30% protein for the first 4 weeks then I switch them over to FRM Wild Bird Grower 17% for the remainder of their life
What percentage of quail hatched?
40%
@@HollisNancysHomestead thank you. That's about what percentage we had for in August. My friend has a 80% hatching rate in the fall and winter.
Make sure you do a video of them in the fryer😅
Will do👍
look like you got a few females, good
Yes👍
I love to pickle the eggs.My husband eats the male ...ha ha
They are so tiny!
You're going to eat these birds correct?
Yes, these are Jumbo Couturnix Meat Makers. The eggs are very tasty as well
