Send some to Georgia ;)
I don’t know if you are being serious, but I could put you on the waitlist. The only thing is, the shipping would be risky and expensive for the buyer so it’s up to you if you want that.
I do have a blue quail hen I’m trying to get rid of. I used her in breeding these, however, she’s not very good and I was relying on the quality of the rooster to balance her out. I used her mostly because Praline just isn’t laying anymore and I need blue quails somehow.

It would have to be fall or next spring. I'd worry about shipping in the heat + humidity we're having here. But, DH has been interested in d'Anvers and your post makes me want them too.

Ok, I can put you on the waitlist, I normally don’t have good ones available until fall, anyway. Plus, if you don't want them anymore, no harm in asking.
What variety/age/sex/quality combination? Quality pairs, pet pullets, cockerels, trios, etc
That way when certain birds become available I can ask people looking for that specific type of bird.
 
As you may know, I am a shomanship judge. I have used different cards over the years but there were always some things missing. The YEPA sheet doesn't have the knowledge questions on the sheet so it can be used for all ages at any time. I just use questions on a different sheet, so a different set of questions for each age, and it can be changed out so kids don't get the same questions every year. However, the YEPA lacked a section for knowlege of your breed and the bird's conditioning, which are two important sections I find on the county fair sheets that I use.
Also, I removed the ambiguity that forced me to write it down whenever a kid pulled the bird out backwards. Now a kid can read exactly what they are expected to do and I can underline whatever they need to work on instead of wasting time writing it out.
All in all, I created a sheet perfect for me! If you'd like to use it as well, feel free to copy and share.
You want my, SOP and Judge's Discretion questions, too?
Well, I can't give away all my secrets!
