It isn't if I want my chicks to be old enough to not freeze to death in winter.

I know that, but it’s still early.

I’m already worried about the winter.

Ditto, not sure what I'm going to do with the quail. They can't survive another winter outside.

I set eggs as late as August once. I nearly lost them all because they weren't big enough and it dropped to -40. I pretty much only hatch bantams now, which is why I can't go later than July.

Then I have a dozen stinky, messy quail inside all winter. I don't have an appropriate indoor pen for them. I'm thinking of a compromise where their permanent pen is right by the basement door and they get brought inside on days/nights that are below zero, but get kicked out again in temps above that.

I think almost everything I do is stupid.

Well, you’re young. Nobody gets through life without committing a huge amount of stupid. You learn, grow, and move on. It’s the way life works. If you’re wise, you do your best to minimize the “stupid.” Some folks don’t bother, but it’s probably a good idea to at least try.
