Hi! I have 10 Coturnix that are 5 weeks old. I've had them inside because it's been so brutally cold. I thought I might put them in a coop inside the garage at first, so it won't be such a shock to go from the nice 70 degree house to the 20 degree outside. Inside the garage it's more like 40-50 degrees, and I can set up a heat lamp to help. I worry that it might still be a shock to their systems since the bottom is hardware cloth, so will be cold beneath them. When it warms up, I can take the coop outside.
So what would you do if they were your quail? I am patient, they can stay inside longer if they need to. Despite my mother being aghast that I am keeping quail in my bathtub. (I'm almost 40, I can do what I want with my own dang bathtub!)
