how much feed per quail

[veggiecanner]

Have you ever figured out how feed it takes per quail I am reffering to something like a jumbo brown. till 6 weeks old.
The purina bag says .08 pounds for 6 weeks. but doesn't say for which type of quail.
We are trying to estimate amounts for raising 50 to 6 weeks.
Any Ideas on this?

i have only raised pharaoh quail. but i can tell you with them, if they run out of food or water they will start eating each other. on the pharaoh quail i give them about 1 1/4 lbs a day for 9 birds.
