So I just ordered (A LOT) of coturnix quail eggs...
The incubation thread keeps talking them up about how efficient they are at laying and how you get more meat per pound of feed...
We will see I guess!!!

Anyone on here keep them?
Everyone over there seems to keep theirs in cages, which unless they like being confined (some animals do) I was planning on building them a coop/ covered run.

From what they were telling me they can start laying at 2 months, and processed around 9 weeks if you don't want to keep the boys?
Someone said their life expectancy in wild is 14 months so they use them for eggs for a year, process at 12 months, then start over with a new batch.

I don't know I really don't know anything about them just going by what people on here have told me....

I just love how pretty their eggs are

Wow, ya'll were chatty today! As usual I am stalking. Just get to pop in most days to have a read and then head off to work or school. Thank God this semester is almost over, I miss spending time with my flock.

I like the way your husband thinks!

??? About leaving my chickens here? At one point, he told me I'd have to get rid of them before we sold because no one will buy a house with chickens running around. ...
