Do you have quail egg scissors? That would make cracking them much easier. You'd probably have to eat about 10-20 eggs just to make one meal of omelettes for your family. My friends & family loved the quail eggs when we had them. In fact now that they're gone, my sister goes out & spends $ buying quail eggs. She thinks they taste better. If at work you casually mention that you have chickens/quail, you'll soon get bombarded with requests to buy eggs.You should come take 100 quail eggs from me a week. That will help feed you. I seriously am getting more eggs than we can handle from the quail. I am rashly considering picking them, but not sure if we like them that way.
You're lucky yours are laying now. I'm guessing you have supplemental light. Mine always stopped in Sept/Oct. I'd love to buy some quail eggs from you in Dec/Jan. Both for hatching & eating. DS is wearing me down & keeps asking for quail again. He's my big egg eater and the only one who wanted the Leghorns.
Oh BTW- I got a whopping FIVE eggs today! I guess another serama or silkie is laying.
