It is sooo cute.. I called my DH to let him know we got our first one, he wants to see a pic of it (he's on the road today). I told him it was about the size of a bigger marble.
Can't wait for all the girls to start laying!!

Serious question I have been wanting to ask.
They are cute and I hear their eggs hatch well and my neighbor loves the eggs pickled.
Someone please tell me what you DO with the birds? How long do they live and lay?

I seperate the extra males and keep them in another cage. I try to sell them for about 3 months and if they don't sell or the ones that don't sell get processed. I always keep a couple though just in case I loose a male. I also pickle the extra eggs I have if I don't swap/sell or incubate them myself. I never process females of any kind of bird. My feeling on females is they provide me with eggs. So far I haven't had extra females to sell. I usually get a lot of males way more than females.
I just set a bunch of my own eggs and so far I have 16 out and still 2 dozen eggs in the bator hatching as we speak.

Pics of my babies hatching. I needed more whites to add to my flock hence why I set soooo many eggs. You can see the whites ones in there they are the little yellow fur balls. They are sooo cute. little and big ones.
Mine are just so friendly. They jump in my hand everyday when I go out to feed and water them.

I heard that the local farmers market sells out of pickled quail eggs almost immediately.

Where or what set up do you keep them in?
