lights and quail health

[Outta Here]

I found the info on lights from Hy-Line, a high production hybrid chicken.View attachment 2753481
Other info I've found on lighting inside the coop and the bulbs I use. View attachment 2753482
For supersize coops evenly space bulbs so you can read a newspaper in the darkest areas of the coop when it's dark outside.
Install bulbs so they don't shine inside nests, chickens like a dark place to lay.
Of course you can use the 800 Lumens bulbs inside if needed. GC

Thanks so much for doing this research! Very interesting and helpful!

How much light are you getting each day? If your getting plenty then it could be other things or the birds are poor producers. I used to keep my Vegas birds in the shade 24/7 and they as they laid based on time of year. How many birds to space, males to females etc?

there getting probably ten hours of light a day I have 4 meters square for 4 quails and they're all female.
