➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[Kiki]

They are a variety of jumbo (aka just big), but a specific one. They're under the umbrella of jumbo along with stellar jumbos, texas a&ms, etc.

I've not heard of these before now.
I have only seen Myshire's Jumbo regular colored quailies.
Where do I find Meat Monsters?

Yeah -me too kiki. Where do I get these giants?

Maybe I should just go with Japanese bantam chickens!

What does this mean in (elementary)English?
Rotation is done every three generations so if a buyer only selects and breeds Wild Type “Brown” hatchlings the future hatched chicks should be all Brown after 2 generations – plumage identification sexing at 3 weeks – males will have varies levels of red tones on breast from light to dark & males will have darker color plumage patterns on head with less white markings than the Standard Wild Type aka “Pharaoh” – females will have varies levels of spots/dots on breast with some females having very dark brown barring on breast – the three meat line lineage that is used in rotational breeding every 3 generations is : Wild Type / Recessive White / Extended Brown – heterozygous

Stellar farms and James Marie Farms have the biggest varieties of meat quail, and they each have their own, but the new hot meat makers are from JMF.

Hmmm. That seems to be live weight. Not butchered. So 13 ounces live gives a 9 ounce carcass. Little larger. 1.5 times not twice.

Again, chickens for the win. BUT quail are quieter. I'm starting to think CX meat birds will be less trouble. Not finalized, but still collecting data.

Stay tuned.

They are saying they breed recessive whites (aka english white or A&M) as well as extended browns (aka tibetan or red range) into their flock so you might get a lot of variation the first few generations in shading compared to more pure pharoah lines.

(I think O.O)

What does this mean? Why is it good that KC sells them.

PS. KC was hit hard by a winter storm. I hope they are shipping.
