Are you looking to purchase quail eggs for your dinner plate or to raise to be processed as meat for your table?

 

Jumbo Coturnix eggs are available at $5.00 per dozen – these eggs are in the 11-14 grams weight range. Some MAY be bigger, our eggs are averaging 13 grams overall currently

 

Please be aware these are not the same size as chicken eggs. They are nutritionally denser per egg, but volume-wise they are 1/3 the size of a chicken egg.

 

Our quail are happy quail and kept together so there are no definitive non-fertile eggs. They can be eaten or hatched.

Pick up in Shiloh IL – contact us so we can designate a location to meet. In order to maintain bio-security, we do not allow people access to our quail breeding area. We have healthy birds for you and our enjoyment, for both eggs, and meat.

 

Live quail are available as well – we expect to have these available in early to mid-august as we expand our flock.

Up to 7 days old – $4.00, price increases by a dollar per bird per week until they reach 12 weeks old.

 

6-8 weeks old is physically mature, and able to reproduce. We recommend you have a flock of a minimum of 4 hens to one roo, no fewer hens than that.

 

All our birds are Celadon gene carriers, and our current hatch does have some hatchlings with full Celadon genes, but it is a barnyard mix, we couldn’t tell you which baby is which for this grouping, but they sure are cute!

 

We have many feather shades and patterns but do carry Jumbo English White quail from the Texas A&M lineage that average 350+ grams (12-14 oz dressed out per bird) and are from the line often used in high-end restaurants. Per Illinois state and US Law -we do not butcher for you, but we can instruct you how to do it easily for your own table or freezer.
