Coturnix Quail Prices

[optic1]

What would be a fair price to sell 1 week old Coturnix quail? I'm thinks of selling 150 and keeping the othe half.

Someone on here paid $1.50 for 10 day old coturnix. I didn't think that was to much. Did you hatch them yourself or buy the chicks? That would make a difference in what you should charge as well as the market in your area.

we had a guy here selling a couple days old chicks for $1 min 25 he had them for sale at a local farmers market

We bought the chicks and now that there growing I do not really need as many as I have for what I'm doing. I have to double all my size of everything in the next few weeks if I keep them and am not really sure if I want to do that. I'm thinking try 100 because I can always get more. $1.50 seems about good, they will be 10 days old on sunday. Now do you keep increasing price as they get older and what would you top out at?

When I raised them I sold the grown birds for $3.00 that was about 2 years ago. As far as chicks if you really want to get rid of them I would sell them $1.00 ea. or less

Good luck selling

There is a person around my town that sells them for I think $1.00 with still fuzz on them... $2.50 if fully feathered, and if she just grabs into the cage (straight run type thing) If you want her to sex them for you, they are $3.. But the pet shop here sells them for $5 and they sell out.. I can sell the birds after fully feathered there for $2.50 each..
