I add ceramic tile to my rabbit cages, they stay cool and the rabbits live laying on them
Yes, that's one of my best rabbit "hacks."
I heard that works really well.
Great tip!! Thank you for sharing that!
Thank you again. Very informative video.
I put Styrofoam insulation board under my tin on the roof. This keeps the sun from heating the tin and creating an oven under it.
It gets so hot in the Midwest we actually stop breeding our rabbits in may and I remember you saying too quail actually do pretty well in the Winter too you wouldn't think that.
I live in Sydney and last summer 14 of my adult quail died in a single day. So make sure they have cold water and shade.
It's been 104 heat index,my rabbits are in my house,I'm converting the garage into AC for my meat rabbits,and I would like to start quail.In the same area.if it's possible ?
I don't see why not so long as you have good ventilation.
The quail can take it, as long as they have good shade, like trees,etc,
I am limited on trees,I live in Florida,new port Richey,I have direct sun light
It was very nice of Molly to help with chores this morning.
Do you have building plans or a video on your quail cages? Thanks
Chris does have previous video on buildings his coops. I built mine off his video & it works good.
Hello im new at this. I hatched 4 quail there doing well. I do have 12 more eggs in the incubator. Hopefully some will hatch. I've been watching all your videos. They been very helpful. I have so many questions to ask you just don't know how to ask you directly. Could you let me know how that would be possible to directly talk to you. Thank you for all your help so far with your videos.
They do a live podcast every week and you can get your answers right away as they have, usually, several experts on the Podcast
@@smckee9063 thank you I didnt know that
Great vid! I’ve learned a lot from many of your videos.
Yes agreed. Good homesteading videos.
I have rabbits, chickens and goats here on my homestead in Nova Scotia Canada. 😀😀😀 Great videos lots of great advice. Your neighbours dog is just beautiful.
Funny enough with the fans, I got it to the side and they all stand directly in front of the fan 😅
I live in southern Alabama I wonder if misters would help here. I am going to start my quail operation in august I am going to buy some eggs then hand have my cages biult buy then. After I get my Turkeys done.
Hi Chris.
Mainly hens , that unusual. Yes don't look a gift horse in the mouth.😅🥰👍
It's been really hot in PA as well, I keep my quail in the yard which really doesn't have shade once the sun comes over in the after noon. I keep the coops covered with a tarp so there is no direct sunlight beating down on them as well a hiding boxes. The biggest problem I have i them tipping or kicking stuff in the water. I must clean it out 4 times a day. I work during the day so I worry about them not having enough water even with back up bowls. They are messy critters. I will put ice in bowls during the high heat times and frozen water bottles. They have more space than needed and usually they just dig a hole in the bedding and lay out. I'm about to move my 3 week olds outside, but I'm waiting for a break in this heat wave.
We are New Mexico, gets well over 100, I freeze milk jugs and soda bottles and they lay beside them!
I am new to raising quail. I have done my research and watched many youtube videos on them. How cold can they handle? It can drop below 0 here often. Do they require a heat lamp in winter when he drops below a certain temp? Thanks.
I have question I was hoping you could help. So we are very new to raising quails and hatching them we have only successfully hatch three eggs two were bought from a quail farm and the one was one the was layed by the one of the ones we have raised. So last night I thought one was hatching but it wasn’t ready the shell was pealing off. Then the next layer was pure white could not see through and was like a latex glove and the next layer is the see through layer that where the blood and veins are. He was almost developed but not quite but the same thing is happening to three more eggs the shells are peeling off. We took apart the egg to see if we could figure out what is wrong but we can’t find any answers I know this probably makes no sense. We have three that should be ready to hatch Sunday but from what we saw we don’t think they will survive. Are we doing something wrong I can’t find any answers.
I have rabbits in shade and under carport with natural breeze year round. They do ok. Honeysuckle vines all around their cages. It is very hot here as well.
Hi I have a question I hope you answer me my rabbit gave birth 6 babies only 2 made it but the mom is not popping is that normal ??
Those quails look adorable.
I had a question if my A&M male keeps picking at all my jumbo brow females eyes should I remove him and just eat him lol or how can I fix this issue
I had one of those who pulled feathers from the tails and backs and terrorized his females. He tasted pretty good and the females are very happy with their new male.
Thanks
Thanks
It is 109 degrees in eastern WA and dry as a bone. I just brought my Quail inside where the fan and air conditioner is cooling them down. tomorrow is forecast for 111 degrees. I figure next week they can go back out. Extra large totes can come in handy sometimes.👌
I've had 1 quail and two chickens die from heat. They were all in shaded areas with a fan, the, one duck has suffered from the heat, even with shade and a pool. The heat here in Arkansas has been brutal already with triple digit heat indexes!
Its hot everyday where i live and i have lots of rabbits
Good tips. Thank you!
I’ve been putting frozen water bottles in my quail cage to cool it down. I also keep plenty of water in the cage for them. What do you think about the frozen water bottles ? P.S. love to watch your channel, so informative. Thank you 😊
I use frozen bottles for my rabbits
Thanks Chris this was very helpful! I live in north-west Oregon and we had two days over 110 degrees! And I had to bring them in my garage and that was interesting!
Here in Salem, my rabbits and quail came into the house for it.
When watching you videos I love seeing your dog in the background so cute. What's his/her name?
