Next, it sounds like you may need more information on how to raise quail, so you will want to look through these articles.

Please be aware that quail are not chickens. They have different housing and nutritional needs.

"If they are huddling together under the heat source, you could lower it and if they are running away from it, you can raise it. "
I have to clarify this comment. If they are huddling under the heat source, they are cold so the heat source should be moved closer to them (lowered if it's a heat lamp). If they're running away from the heat source, it's too hot and should be moved further away (raised if it's a heat lamp).

I know what Jener8or meant, but thought it might be confusing the way it was written.
