Raising Quail In The Suburbs
Why Quail? I wanted fresh eggs! Quail better than chickens? Absolutely! I’m slightly biased, but here’s why:
They are quiet, really quiet – I live in the suburbs and can’t be upsetting neighbors
They start producing eggs in just 6 weeks vice 6 months for chickens
The eggs are smaller, about 4 Quail eggs for each chicken egg but quail eggs pack more nutrition than chicken eggs (a topic of hot debate!)
They are super docile and will not peck or spur you
