Quail chicks need to be started at 99 degrees F. for the first week. You should have your brooder heat source on for at least 24 hours before your chicks arrive. The most common and inexpensive way to select your brooder heat is with a heat lamp. It helps to keep them calm and is a less intense light but adequate as a heat source. Make sure during your brooding period that the chicks are kept in a draft-free area. Each week, lower your brooding temperature by 5 degrees F. This is done for 6 – 8 weeks until the chicks are feathered out and can withstand the regular environment temperature, usually 70 degrees F. Avoid overheating your chicks; make sure that they have plenty of room to get away from the heat source on their own.
