Advert Description
We breed our own Jumbo Coturnix Quail here and offer quail chicks, as well quail hatching eggs. Young chicks will require heat until about 4 weeks old. In winter they will need to be inside, or in a shed until they are about 6 weeks old. In summer they can go outside at 4 weeks. Adults can go outside straight away, they are quite tolerant to the cold, but they don't like getting wet and cold.
We absolutely recommend a minimum of 5, any less and they can get too territorial once you put them in their housing. .
We also sell Jumbo Quail hatching eggs - these are available to post anywhere in the UK. Our jumbo cortunix quail are slightly bigger than the standard quail - and lay lovely sized quail eggs. They are considered one of the fastest-growing and largest of all quail, bred specifically for attaining a large size. At maturity, these quail have been reported to weigh up to 14 ounces.
Jumbo quail are very solid production birds and are especially efficient for the small farm, smallholding, or even urban farms, which make these great for keeping as pets for children too, as they are easy to handle and really thrive in small space. They can be raised as alternative meat that can be raised quickly in a small space and with efficient feed usage.
We are registered as a business seller with preloved - so you can just click our website link with our name to go straight to the order page to purchase your eggs. Alternatively, if you have any questions, you can text / call us and we will help you.
