Oh ok thank you, I will have to call them in the morning since they're on Eastern time. I just checked out the Quail section and read up on how to process them lol pretty graphic! At least they're tiny.

If I understand the system ( and I may not for frigging sure!!) most of them have not had enough serious breeders doing it for 5 years to be in the running yet. They are new to the US still, I remeber finding info on the internet that they had even been accepted and MUCH rejoicing.

When I was in High School, I would go out and shoot a couple of Quail, take them home and clean them and skin them. When I had collected 12 or so I would make Quail Stew!

ok I have a quandry. As you might have remembered, I have been on the lookout for a jubilee rooster forEVER. I had a few coming, then somethign would happen, and I gave up.

Now pappabrooder has moved things around so I can have one of his not related to my one remaining girl. But is a pair enough to even bother with? I suppose I could get another english orphington hen to put in there so she is not overbred, but i'm just not sure if its worth it. I should answer him soon, he PMed me last week but I did not get it until today. They ARE beautiful birds, but i dont want pinhead to hate me...
