All I know is with the full spectrum at 6300k is supposed to be closer to normal sunlight, and my birds seems to play a lot more under it, which I equate to being happier. However, with them being more active they do seem to eat quite a bit more but grow slower. If that makes sense. This batch started laying much earlier under the full spectrum at 5.5 weeks. The hens under the 2700k light didn't start laying until almost 9 weeks. They came from same gene pool. Only difference in their setup was the light temperature.
I couldn't afford to buy that many of the full spectrum ccfl when I found them.

Those of you that say the quails don't need extra heat/ have boxes. I'd really like to see your builds, as I'm about to start building soon. Please and ty.
