Quail Weight Classes

My Quest for Quail...
This is not the standard just a chart I smashed together... lol

Where do you stand with your breed type and weights...?

Ten ounces for a jumbo seems small. I usually tell people my quail are at or near jumbo-sized, and they're about 12-14 oz. Since most of my birds are bigger, it almost seems weird to think there are 5 ounce standard-size birds still around.

Yeah.. Standards 5 ounces - 9.9 ounces @ 10 weeks...
5oz is on the small end for standards. I was hatching both standard and jumbo variety and theyd pop out small every now and then.
Right now my Jumbo White Coturnix ~ weigh @ 10 weeks is 15.8oz
Miss Prissy she is 18.4 oz @ 30 weeks
