Quail That Can Be Housed Outdoors

[Z.Baker]

Howdy,
    I am new to the quail hobby.   I was wondering what quail other than bobwhite can be housed outside.  I live in West Central Illinois so that will give you an idea of the climate.  The quail will have shelter like some little buildings and brush piles and longer grass.  Just need some opinions. :)

Thanks A Bundle,

Zane Baker

HI
 I HAVE GAMBLE ,VALLEY, WHITE BOBS AND ORANGE BOBS ALL OUTSIDE ALL YEAR. THE PENS ARE WIRE BOTTOMS AND HALF OF THE PEN IS CLOSED IN AND THE  OTHER HALF IS OPEN JUST WIRE. IN THE WINTER I CLOSE IN 2/3 OF THE OPEN PART PLUS I WRAP PLASTIC AROUND THE LEGS OF THE PENS TO KEEP THE COLD FROM COMMING UP UNDER THE PENS. I LIVE IN DELAWARE, PROBLEY NOT AS COLD AS YOUR STATE BUT IT GETS DOWN TO 0 AT NIGHT SOMETIMES BUT IN THE TEENS IS ABOUT AVERAGE.
 I ALSO RAISE REG. BOBWHITES, CHUKARS , BLUE SCALE AND BLONDE BOBS THEY ARE IN MY BREEDER BUILDING CLOSED IN BUT NO HEAT, I HAVEN`T HAD A PROBLEM IN 6 YEARS DUE TO THE COLD.
