Alternative Breeding Methods and Artificial Insemination 

Thank you Terry for showing this to us. Haven and I learn something new everyday from you. 🙏🏻

Thanks Terry, I learned something new today...

Well I am new to this whole quail thing, as a matter of fact I just went into lockdown today with my 33 eggs from SWGB, and I am learning tons everyday so thx Terry for the very informative vids I am in So Ga so our climes are the same, I never would have known it was more or less that simple. Thank You Greatly Appreciated.

I just found out i have 3 roo's and 3 hens from my jumbo whites. Thank you for this information video .

Terry, thanks for the info, your a great source of knowledge. I never would have thought of doing AI on quail

Very interesting!

This is great! I didn't realize it was so easy Would save on birds getting beat up for sure! Thanks for the great info Terry!

Wow so easy, less than 30 secs and its done. Thanks for the upload 😀

Awesome info Terry. I've been having some issues with a new incubator that had an egg Crack in it last round, only getting %25 hatch rate for that run. After cleaning & sterilizing (not fumigating) 2 months ago, I started running small egg sets for baluts (30 each day). After candling, I'm still getting poor fertility. My breeders are all young healthy roosters (i.e. "foamy") and the do mate with the 3, 4 or 5 hens pending the cage, but still poor fertility rate. It's been winter time cold here, so I collect throughout the day - some still warm when loading the in the tray. I've made some adjustments for the last two racks, just to see if that can help (storing the eggs at 60°f in 70% humidity vs 50° in a cooler until loading). I've also tried the H202 mist and rainwater rinse "patented" technique and will candle those this eve. I plan on artificially insemination all my hens with my best rooster(s) just to ensure the next run is %100 fertilized. If that doesn't help then it must be something with the incubator. The temp has 5 separate thermometers showing ideal 37.5°C in all areas, and the humidity is double checked with 2 digital readings. Perhaps I will need to resterilize and this time fumigation with Potassium Permangenate and formalin gas (outlined in the wynola ranch hatching tips .pdf from Missouri stare extention). I may try a smaller incubator and do a small batch just to eliminate that. I have had %80 hatch rates, and nothing has changed with the electronics, controller, machinery, so I'm guessing it is the males. I have swapped out layer feed with breeder feed, but they lay as if they don't notice a difference. That being said - there is a story that 2 brands of tractor supply layer feed has caused flocks to stop laying. My feed comes from an Amish country feed mill, and all non GMO. I hate to sell hatching eggs if I can confirm they are viable. Hate to have to artificially inseminate every day... I get enough work at that with my own "chick" :) Your pal in RDG PA Doc - Tully River Quail

Very interesting! Gonna try the AI to maximize my hen capacity while still getting even fertility coverage. I didn’t realize it was that easy

Well I learned something new today 😆

Hi i was vent sexing my quail now that they are 6 weeks old. I seen one pulsing thinking it was a male il probably gave to recent to be sure. I thought you would be be able to artificialaly breen them like this, this video helped thank you.

Nice technique. How long the female remains impregnated? Thanks for answering.

Nice video sir watching sir shout out sir thank you

Neato, had no idea AI could be so simple!!!!

Have to do this for my two pansy the male attacked them when i had come back from work.

Hi Terry great video. Question about artificially inseminating quail. Is this done only every 7 days or every day and will 7days of those eggs be fertile? Thanks!

after they breed are the eggs fertile right away and how long will eggs stay fertile after mating? just curious because I like that method better.

this video is great. im soon going to get two quails and a rooster (i have a plan to separate them) but ive done research and heard that you can inseminate a female quial with a rooster. how would i do that?

love that idea. also saves your hen from getting scalped, and you can keep records if you have leg bands on them. Is there a wait time till when you incubate the eggs or can you right away?

How many days til the eggs are fertile after artificial??? And how long after 1 insemination does the hen remain fertilized?

Does the Insemination make the eggs fertile starting with the next egg laid within 24 hours ?

Also, how many hens have you found you can AI at one time with one rooster? I have a pen that can hold 10 hens and I’m wondering if I could do all 10 at once

So you’ll get 7 fertile eggs from just that artificial insemination? And also 7 more from that short time the other three were together?

How long do the boys remain separated from the other birds and are there any problems because they're separated? In the comments, you said that you collect eggs for 7 days before you set them. Do you mean that those eggs are fertile and that you're just waiting for a big enough batch to incubate? I'm assuming that the next egg laid will be fertilized but maybe I'm wrong.

An issue that i have with my rooster is that a disease blinded him in one of his eyes and he can't breed properly

How long do you wait till the eggs are then firtle. And how often do you inseminate the hens

@terry don’t forget to wash your hands. 🤦‍♂️

Is this foam a sperm, and is this method enriched?

Well... That's different.... Lol

Why???😮 There an easier more natural way.

Fyi stay away from the Facebook group. The most close minded toxic people I've ever seen.
