Any jumbo quail eggs near me?

There's a livestock swap coming up, Saturday May 6th at Tyrone Milling from 9am-1pm. Maybe someone will have some there? But if you decide to come, come EARLY! Good stuff sells of extremely fast!
I'm supposed to be getting blue scale quail eggs in the mail soon. I ordered a couple months ago and the ship date was sometime in May. I'm excited lol

Those are a little far from me - I'm in the Harrisburg/York area. Anyone know of swaps in my neck of the woods? I'd love to meet others from the board.

Me too, Im in Lebanon county area. Swaps sound interesting..."as my husband has that scared look on his face..." I left this morning and came home with a box, he said donuts? I said, No black copper marans!

Poor fella. I'm on your side though, cause I'm the husband and I'm also the chicken lover.

Dennis, I just checked how many eggs these ameraucanas laid this month. Pepsi laid 27 eggs in 30 days! The lavender ameraucana KitKat laid 24. They’re really good layers! Actually, when daylight is longer, Pepsi obviously laid more. She hasn’t stopped once for last two weeks and is still the first one laid egg this morning. And my three year old olive egger Boo laid 21 eggs this month.

Unfortunately I work Saturdays.
Wish I could go but I gotta give a 3 week notice to have off.
Good luck with those quail eggs

If I see any, maybe I'll grab them for you if you want. I don't think you're too far from me lol

I have noticed that some breeds lay in spurts, where for a period of time they lay an egg nearly every day. Ducks are like that too. These breeds usually start later and stop earlier than the "laying breeds" like Welbars and Legbars. I don't keep such good records of individual hens, but in some cases I can tell because of egg color or separate confinement.
Right now I am getting loads of Ameraucana eggs and eating most of them because there is little demand, even for sexed chicks. The confusion with hatchery Ameraucanas has devalued the real one for many people.

This is likely to be my last year with large fowl Ameraucanas. I will keep the bantams, and maybe the Mottleds if they should happen to do better this year than previous years.

I have lots, but not too near. I think quail eggs ship pretty well though.

unplanned Easter Egger Cockerel looking for a home in Tioga County! 5 weeks old on 5/1/23. Mareks vaccinated from Townline Hatchery. He would be a good flock guard eventually, not suited for pethood. PM me if interested. I have family in Lancaster county and can transport him to any point along the way.

I've named him Eddie Munster, but you could call whatever you like LOL

(sorry about the pic quality. I'm at work, so grabbed some stills off a video)
