You are just a dynamo. Great information on the quail and how you are growing your business. Nice job, well done. Your explanations of why you do what you do are very accurate.
In time, you could also branch out for egg eating snakes. I raise rats to feed my rescue snakes. People don't understand what it takes, and/or the amount of time that is put into this.
Brilliant Hustle my Brother! I got a Spot in High Springs and I’m surrounded by buyers. Metal Building hvac? equipment for production? Build the Quail Hotel! Do you buy the poultry equipment at auction? You’re the MAN! Respect!
Thank you Blake. You have a very cool set up for your quails. Have you tried raising Bob White for the hunter’s? If you have any suggestions please let me know. God bless and thank you.
I prefer to raise my quail in ground pens instead of battery cages, so they can dust bathe, scratch in the dirt and eat the weeds and insects. Bare cages aren’t a great life for any animal.
With larger numbers it is harder to maintain humane conditions. To imagine there is a lot of room for growth. I expect they are developing their systems for a much larger operation, since at its current size they could treat these birds much better then they are. Or they have a lot of other things to do that requires them to not spend too much time on the quail. I’m just getting started on my own quail operation, and we are being much more gentle so far. For starters we are only selling eggs, so very little dispatching going on.
@@chrisblanc663 I have more quail than this and l have no reason to keep them like this…. Mine live in ground pens where they can dust bathe and scratch around in the bedding.
I like to watch your videos, because you sre good at explaining and fast that's good, I font like when people waste tomuch time in talking, yes hit the name on the head and keep going, great job.👍
Way of the world. If you have a dog, they are eating something that was alive once in their kibble food. Quail are great!! Like rabbits or mice of the bird world.
Bro stop. Chicks are bigger at a day old and will have more protein then a quil. Why do you breed quil not chicks? Cause as you said egg production is higher which means more money
I love and support you blake.. but i dont understand how u can be so understanding about quails being FOOD.. but will go around the world and condemn cultures that eat turtles or other species for living.. its weird
u expect me to go look for the exact vids and point out the exact time he passed comments ? if you want to pick an argument with anyone its not here.. WAS I TALKING TO YOU ? NO!! KEEP YOUR CORNER @@brockn7878
thats just how some are, i have a neighbor who kills cats but says would never harm a dog so that makes him feel better about himself. blake has grew up, got big an changed, once was all about the animals now he is just a big back yard breeder
@chrisblanc663 all animals deserve quality. If u choose to bring animals into your care then YOU have the responsibility to ensure u are providing them a safe and decent quality of life. Otherwise don't bother and continue to live in your selfish ways without hurting animals
@@kirstysmith2903 but what constitutes a “good life” is what I am getting at. Quail are burrowing breeds meaning they don’t like to have a LOT of space, it makes them nervous and unhappy. They obviously need to have enough space but “enough” depends on their view, not yours. You need to know what the animal you are caring for needs, and not anthropomorphize them into what you would want in their place. For example if you have their cage a little too tall, the quail will fly upward and break their neck. They either need to be 1 foot tall, or 6 feet tall. The 6feet tall is for human comfort in going into the cage, usually for colony living birds while their preference is 1 foot tall for reasons I just mentioned.
@@LacedWaffle They are meant to be cages, First find the history of quails as to how the ancient Egyptians and Chinese raised them, and how they lost their ability to survive in wild instead of a low IQ keyboard warrior, if you release them, they would be dead within an hour, as every thing want to eat them.
He said he "puts them to sleep" which means they use an anesthetic gas. So they literally just fall asleep and never wake up. Could be any number of certain types of gas common in the industry. I used to work ate a shelter where we had to put down certain animals and I bear witness that it is quick and painless. Sad but humane, so to speak..
From Wikipedia... Gas anesthetics such as isoflurane and sevoflurane can be used for euthanasia of very small animals. The animals are placed in sealed chambers where high levels of anesthetic gas are introduced. Death may also be caused using carbon dioxide once unconsciousness has been achieved by inhaled anaesthetic.[9] Carbon dioxide is often used on its own for euthanasia of wild animals.[10] There are mixed opinions on whether it causes distress when used on its own, with human experiments lending support to the evidence that it can cause distress and equivocal results in non-humans.[11] In 2013, the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) issued new guidelines for carbon dioxide induction, stating that a flow rate of 10% to 30% volume/min is optimal for the humane euthanasia of small rodents.[12] Carbon monoxide is often used, but some states in the US have banned its use in animal shelters: although carbon monoxide poisoning is not particularly painful, the conditions in the gas chamber are often not humane.[13] Nitrogen has been shown to be effective, although some young animals are more resistant to the effects,[14] and it currently is not widely used.
Your entire existence in this human made civilization is MONEY.... even your home you need money to keep with you, so YEA he IS DOING FOR MONEY. Your "empathy" and "compassion" is not going to pay for the life in the artificial system of paper money. And no communism as well need bits of paper. if you dislike capitalism. If he does not do what he does, are you OK with paying his bills sponsoring his lifestyle ? or he would become homeless.
I haven't watched any of this guy's other videos so I know nothing about him, but what is he doing that's wrong? nothing in this video is wrong??? I'm confused
