Used to, but not now... I had a few buttons, I loved them, we called them redneck parakeets! I love when the males do a little call, it sounds like they where laughing, so funny!!

I started wondering about that too.

I have heard that quail eggs are very nutritious ----even more so than chicken eggs..............

also from my recent readings.........it appears raising quail is very similar to raising chickens .........less space needed............similar feed sort of............

did you enjoy raising them?

what was your main reason for raising quail..............meat, eggs, both? breeding?

 

[chiques chicks]

I've never gotten an egg.
I raised them just to try, plus it was for a hatch and greatly increased my eggs set county. No, seriously, that was a reason!
They eat basically the same, don't need a lot of space, are fun and cute.

The bad. They are poop machines.

I should add, I miss the call of bobwhite I remember as a kid, echoing through the valley. Now, about those escapees...

We have some Bobwhites. We eat the eggs which are very hard to crack and peel due to their thick membrane. We have 2 males and 8 females. I love hearing the males calling in the morning.
