Do white Coturnix lay later or not as much as the brown? This is my second time trying the white ones and, at almost 9 weeks, still no eggs. The last time I tried the white ones I gave up on them at 5 months and ate them all as they never gave me any eggs at all.

You can go retro and hand turn the eggs. Free eggs is FREE EGGS after all and not to be missed lol.

They ae the only critters I don't bother to rest, they always seem to be tender, no mater if they are fresh or have set awhile in the fridge or I have frozen and thawed them. Always good! Was KICKING myself yesterday when I processed 8 of them here. I agreed to sell two packs of four quail...

Well, bacon is the best thing in the world so I don't think you did any harm LOL! Just butchered 8 in 30 min., not bad at all.

Just remember that quail is a delicate flavor and don't overpower it with other flavors. And this weather eh? It just sucks!

How are you planning to cook them? I cut off the breast meat and the legs, double dip them in seasoned flour (milk, flour, milk, flour) and then fry in a skillet with grape seed oil till golden brown. Then pour off the oil and make gravy from the drippings. OMG it is SO GOOD!!! So good, in...

Rabbits stop being cute and fluffy after the claw your arms to bits a few times. They become tasty fur wrapped packages then!

All my quail are going this weekend as we havnt seen egg one in over two MONTHS! With the price of their food, freeloading quail are NOT a wonderful thing.

I hold them by the body, whack the back of the head off the kitchen counter and cut the head off with my hand pruners. Well, its snip and pull really. Then I drop them into a bucket with a lid on so they can flap about without spattering the walls lol. My kids and I can clean a meals worth...

Our neighborhood is stuffed with wildlife so my Co. Roos just blend into the other birds. Sandhill Cranes are loud, my roos arnt!

Quote: I have something like 70 some coturnix outside (varying ages).... they go through a 50lb bag in a little more than 2 weeks. Very VERY usefull info, Thanks heaps for that

Quote: I honestly don't go by the 1sqf per bird thing just because the birds normally huddle and socilize together anyhow and as long as they can ALL lay down and sprawl out, walk around, be able to stay away from their water so they dont get wet etc I see anything wrong with it. Since jumbos...

I have a question about stocking densities. Reading about them it seems they need one square foot each but then I read that 20 or 30 will fit in a 4ft by 2 ft cage???? If I build that size cage, how many jumbos will fit HAPPILY in it? Oh, and I figured out how to make my cages racoon proof...

Would there be any danger of raccoons putting their hands in if you use 1/2 by 1 inch wire? I dont know what lives in our back yard but it sure liked the spoiled shrimp I berried

A lady I am thinking of buying some birds off of gave me the following links for information on quail when I told her how little I know about them. http://www.backwoodshome.com/articles2/easterly101.html and http://www.essortment.com/all/coturnixquail_rksp.htm I think reading information...
