For any of you whom are looking into getting quail, or already have... I think this is a great video for anyone with celadon egg layers or possible Celadon's / or just unknown genetic birds. I had thought when our first batch was candled that many of the Celadon's were infertile was interesting. With so many breeders in the us, and not always knowing exact genetics like other animals, it makes it harder to know certain traits, disease, fertility and so forth. Some of what is talked about I have not watched the entire video talks about Celadon's being crossed with pharaoh and having deformities and other issues. I do know my first batch has this or are carriers, so I will be working with my birds to see how to reduce any problems. I may even wait to sell my celadon / carriers, but we'll see how they develop, and their offspring does. If anyone has any insight, please comment below to help myself and others to better the animal as a whole. I am in no way trying to put anyone down, and purely just want to share information so others can make educated decisions, and to hopefully build awareness for some of us that would like to try to breed these issues out if possible or find ways to reduce issues as best as we can. Thank you all for being understanding and I hope you'll share this information with others.

The egg is such an amazing thing. No matter the species. #evermoreranch #evermorestellar #coturnixquaileggs (at Evermore Ranch) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0epWOpAyiY/?igshid=kmadgv014kky

I've been trying to read up on the health benefits of Quail meat, but it seems to be hard to find. Even though many areas of the world consider Quail to be a delicacy. Here's a bit of information that I did get, and its quite interesting I hope to post soon one about chicken meat as well to give everyone an idea of the differences. I know at least on our homestead we want to make the switch to mostly Quail meat / eggs, however as we grow and learn I hope to one day add more ducks (preferably Muscovy), maybe even goose (since many if not all breeds are heavy grass eaters). the main goal is to grow and raise our own meat, veggies / eggs and dairy for our family of 4 and our dogs (not so much dairy for them), and if we ever find the right one maybe a kitten or two. Not only do I want to raise & grow our own foods but the foods for the animals we're raising as well. Like many the goal is as self-sufficient as possible, but to I'd also love to turn this goal into a career to help others get to where we eventually will be, and to sell our extra's since it would be my / our business we can set the prices, or we can donate. The control to be able to decide if WE donate, or lower prices when needed or give deals etc., will be ours to choose instead of going into work daily to see the prices going up and down every other week leaving low income families to wonder if next week's paycheck will be able to afford eggs, soap, etc. because no one knows what the price is going to be next week, sometimes even the next day.
