鹌鹑是美妙的鸟类，它们的受欢迎程度正在迅速增加。通常将它们保留在美味的鸡蛋，肉和宠物中。
一些育种者说，繁殖鹌鹑很容易，并且通常会比您预期的更多的小鸡孵化。
鹌鹑tend to behave somewhat differently under the care of human breeders.
有时候繁殖鹌鹑可能很难，因为您必须有很多空间来容纳鸟类，而且您还必须花费大量时间和金钱上的饲料，水和住房。
但是，如果您有孵化器，繁殖鹌鹑将很容易。在这里，我们正在描述更多有关如何繁殖鹌鹑, and the required facilities for breeding quail.

繁殖鹌鹑的要点
在这里，我们正在描述更多有关the essentials for breeding quail.
确保您有足够的钱和时间
For successful breeding of quail you must have to have enough time and money. Decide whether you are ready for this or not.
您必须花很多钱在水，饲料和住房上。您还需要有很多空间来容纳鸟类。
Ensure You Have Enough Space
You will need a large space for breeding quail. Although quails are smaller sized birds and they don’t require much space.
But breeding quails require pretty much space. Each breeding quail will require at least 1 square foot of floor space.
如果它们没有足够的空间，那么您的鸟不会因为禁闭而产生太多鸡蛋。
Calm Environment
尝试将笼子或房屋放在平静的环境中。因为鹌鹑通常需要在一个和平和不受干扰的地区。
他们需要平静的环境来产卵以及开始繁殖。如果环境没有捕食者，大声的噪音，交通高以及其他鸟类或动物，那将会更好。
Lighting
鹌鹑s generally require between 13 and 16 hours of lighting period daily. You can hang a light above their cage. 13-16 hours of lighting period daily will increase the quail’s egg production.
Never keep the lights on for all day and night. Because breeding quails require some dark period for sleeping.
提供床上用品和筑巢材料
Provide some straw or hay for your birds. Quails actually need to build nests before they lay eggs or hatch out chicks.
Sometimes quails lay eggs in peculiar spots or around their cage rather than in their nests. They generally lay about 5-7 eggs and then clutch them together in their nest and sit on them.
雄性和雌性鹌鹑通常都坐在鸡蛋上。您还可以为鹌鹑提供嵌套盒，并提供稻草和干草。
Plastic pots, container or small cardboard boxes will be good as nesting box for the quails, as long as they have an entrance to them.
如果嵌套盒比鹌鹑大一点，那将是好的，并且鹌鹑应该能够穿过入口/孔。
Temperature
保持繁殖笔的最佳温度约为21°C。一旦温度降至16°C以下以及天气炎热的咒语，雄性鹌鹑往往会失去对繁殖的兴趣。
Breeding quail during spring or summer will ensure better result. Quails generally start to mate and nest during spring and summer. Although some quail breed can breed year round.
孵化器
您可以使用孵化器轻松孵化鹌鹑蛋。虽然您可以让鸟孵化鸡蛋。而且，让鸟类孵化小鸡会为您完成工作，而您不必拥有一个孵化器，可能会更容易。
Although some quail don’t make good parents and some are hard to get broody. Depending on the species, quail eggs will take between 16 and 23 days to hatch.
孵化器的孵化鸡蛋,species will require a temperature of 37.5 °C at the center of the eggs, decreasing slightly to 37 °C once they start to hatch on the final days.
The optimum humidity during the incubation period is 45 percent, increasing to 80 percent during the hatch.
鹌鹑鸡蛋由于斑驳的贝壳而难以蜡烛。因此，大多数人只会运行孵化器，直到到达孵化时间而无需蜡烛。
保持繁殖鹌鹑
在这里，我们描述了保持繁殖鹌鹑的步骤。
Choose Healthy Quails
Always try to choose healthy and active quails to breed. You can choose healthy quails either from your existing flock from purchase from a store. You must have to choose the healthiest bird you can find.
健康的鹌鹑将活跃，活跃，玩耍，它们将非常好奇并且看起来谨慎。他们会饮食适当，偶尔喝水，然后在食物或附近的任何虫子上啄食。
Choose Birds of At Least 6 Weeks of Age
While choosing breeding quail, ensure the birds are at least 6 weeks old. Quails which are less than 6 weeks old will probably not be lying eggs.
Male to Female Ratio
Keeping one male for 2-5 female quails will ensure good result. But never exceed 5 females per male. It will be good if you can keep each male and his females separate from others.
因为如果您将太多的雄性放在羊群中，那么他们将争夺女性并互相杀死。因此，保持男性彼此分开将保持安全。
Feeding
用高质量的饲料喂养繁殖鹌鹑。高质量的饲料将帮助您的鸟保持健康并产生健康的小鸡。
您可以从任何最近的宠物店或动物饲料供应商店购买现成的鹌鹑饲料。
确保良好的环境
确保鸟类的平静和不受干扰的环境。如果您的鸟不受干扰，您的鸟将很快开始交配，筑巢并坐在鸡蛋上。只要您平静而安静，偶尔进行检查就可以了。
Hatching
You can either use an incubator or let your birds to hatch.
Let the Birds to Hatch
You can use your birds to hatch their eggs. In this case, do not touch or mess with the eggs unless emergency (the birds might discard them).
If you notice that your birds are laying eggs separately, then leave them. They are making a clutch before they sit on them.
Depending on the breed it will take between 16 and 23 days for the eggs to hatch once the hen has started sitting on them.
坐在第17天之后，更经常检查您的鸟。因为17天后，小鸡将接近孵化。
将母鸡和她的小鸡与羊群分开
Keep the hen and her chicks separated from the flock. Other quails, especially can attack or peck at the chicks. And this cause serious injuries.
It will be better if you can keep the hen and her chicks in a warm place with bedding, water and food. And placing a heat-lamp in the area will be good. Although the hen will keep her chicks warm naturally.
Feeding the Chicks
用起动饲料给小鸡喂养。大约28％蛋白质的鸡肉启动器对鹌鹑小鸡有益。这样的起动食品将确保您的小鸡会成长为健康健康的鸟类。
水
确保获得新鲜和清洁的水。使用较小的水碗，以使小鸡没有溺水的危险。
Separate Male and Female Chicks
Separate male and female birds once they have reached 6 weeks of age. You can separate male and females by using vent system, looking at the feathers, observing their behavior and also by listening to their voice. Separating males from the females is necessary for preventing fighting.
移至笼子
Move the birds to a cage after their 6 weeks of age. You can either put them in a spacious pen or keep them in a simple rodent cage. Follow the steps mentioned above for breeding a new flock of quail.
