I have ate culls as early as 6 weeks but try to wait till 8 weeks to send to camp Kenmore... No matter how old they are, they always fall in the "tasty" category!! Bill

REally? Well, I'm not interested in culling and eating them. I plan on keeping them all and raising a few females in one pen for eating eggs, and a few females with a male in another pen so they make fertile eggs and i can keep hatching more!

Whatcha gonna do with other 50% that will likely be Roos?

 

[Axle Quails]

That's what I was thinking as well. I'll just keep 1-2 males and the rest females. Theres always quail for sale online

Or I could hatch some more! That's not a problem lol!

A week ago and 3X the size? Thats fast

I'm ordering some more eggs soon!! Probably coturnix again, but not the pharaoh coloring maybe the golden speckled.....Do Texas A&M quail make good egg layers and breeders?
