➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

That's amazing! It sucks that the goats are on your land again, but what a wonderful discovery. It's so cool that your dogs automatically rounded them up and that you got it all on video.

Thx and yeah, I thought so too. Normally I'm all, " grr grumble grumble, not my animals in my yard, etc etc". Hearing my son explain to me what had happened and them showing me on camera, he was like "they were both bad dogs but at least they didn't attack them" and I am over here just amazed and trying to get them to understand the significance of what had just happened. I was totally focused on something else entirely lol. I think they were good dogs!

Build a quail cage and I'll send you some eggs.

How big of a cage do you need? Any special requirements for quail?

I don't know if that is an indicator or not, none of mine lay Celadon but some do have the blue inner shell. I believe James Marie Farms sells them in addition to other folks, but have to call not just order on his website.

I'm really tempted to get Celadon eggs myself.

I've been eyeballing this place.

Not big at all.
I'd say 4 foot by 2 foot is good for 8 quail.
Have you seen my quail cage build thread yet?

I have to also say/admit to stalking a few people on Instagram who have bought eggs from this place and I have not yet come across anyone who bought eggs and hatched them and had their quail lay anything as blue as what the pictures look like.

I'm might investigate too much.

So for your recipe, what kind of meat is that that you are using? Is it quail? Or do you have access to goat meat like he used in that curry?
