I have a few northern bobwhite quail in a brooder. They've been in there for 7 days. Do any of you know when I could start taking the heat off them pls?

Mine were off heat and outside at 6 weeks old. You could probably do sooner depending on the temperature. Bobwhites are tough little birds. I had a bulb burn out and 2 dozen (one day old) bobs survived their first night just fine huddling together for warmth.
