My uncle and cousin used to raise rabbits to sell, and for a few dollars more would butcher them for customers. My understanding in Virginia as far as chickens go one must be USDA inspected to sell butchered poultry, but I don't know if quail falls under that requirement or not. Seems like ready to cook quail would be a good seller if it is legal. I just wonder if any of you butcher quail for customers. Although it would be great to hear from anyone in Virginia who does this or knows if it is okay or not, I'd still like to hear from anyone who does it. How much do you charge per quail if you dress them?
I edited to say I am pretty sure it is illegal to sell butchered bobwhites, but coturnix is what I'm interested in knowing about.
