Japanese Quail
Japanese (Coturnix) quail are considered America's new backyard chicken and are quickly growing in popularity. These little powerhouses: ​
-
hatch in just 18 days (vs 21 for chicken)
-
can start laying eggs just 6-8 weeks after hatch
-
require less feed and less space than chickens
-
can lay 300+ delicious eggs a year
