How did survive my quails the Great Snow and Freezing Cold Attack in Scotland?

I started to grow quails for their eggs, with all the health improvements what they supposed to cause. Well, they did work well, until i did move in Scotland and i had to keep them in natural conditions (?) in cage, obviously, but outside, hoping that the scottish winter will not make too much harm to the delicate birds.
Well, the experiment just amazed me, how they did live happily, after the -7 C, what we got in Scotland, not once but quite long intervals.
Considering that every single site about the quails recomends over +16C for the quails wellbeing, i hope this experiment will convince lot of bird lovers to engage in such a nice preocupation like growing quails.

I did move in beautiful Scotland after an unhappy event, i mean after i married Alex, a quite charming pensioner, picked up from a dating site. Actually he did pick me up, and at my age (60) i did find exiting to fall in love. Well, i can not complain, the years was not noring what we spent together. First he did amaze me with his closed-mind nature, a born sens of humor, and this mixture seemed to me charming. Obviously i hoped to change what is bad in good.
On the other hand, i came with my stubborn nature, convinced that i will make my not very genius husband to develop exactly as i want.
I guess, i even do not have to highlight that i did not succeed at all.  Actually he did what he wanted with me.
Especially in the first year, when i did not have a bancaccount, i could not have my romanian pension , sometimes i just wanted to go home but i had no money. I felt panicked, i did not know what to expect after he yielled at me, started to hit me...
However, when i wanted very much to go home, eventually he did let me. At first i did not realise the connection but later i saw that anytime he spend a lot of time on the computer, he will let me go.
Now how stupid i have to be not to notice the connection? Thank Google, in a short time i found a soft, which did show me exactly what is doing my husband when starring at the computer, while i am in the kitchen or where ever. He was in love, repeteadly, mostly with ladies from Ukraina, Bulgaria or Russia...o, and China. He did invite them, telling that he is widow...So when i left to go home, for a week or two, for my pension problems or whatever, he had guests...
