Are these the right quail?

I've never down the California's before, I ended up being given eggs though so figured I would give it a go. Their eggs are a fair bit smaller then my coturnix eggs. And yes the standard eggs are fine for eating, I usually keep some hard boiled in the fridge for salads and snacks. Perfect bite size.
 
I can tell you for sure those are not jumbos. I sold that person her chicks a few months ago so they are from my stock. When I ordered my first eggs almost a year ago they were supposed to be jumbos but they were from eBay and after hatching hundreds of chicks from this stock I have not gotten many over 10 oz. they are nice birds but I wouldn't call them jumbos. I plan on ordering from James Marie farms probably this month so I can get the real deal this time aroun
ididn't see any jumbo browns at James Marie Farms , do they have a different name? All the names are confusing me.
 
Both of those will be jumbo. I went with the James Marie pharaoh after talking with Robby at the farm.....will be here in a couple of weeks....so excited. If you have questions about what is best for your needs he is great to talk to and guide you in the right direction.
