jumbo white
We have a jumbo White group consisting of one jumbo roo and five jumbo hens. Our roo is from one breeder, while the hens come from two other breeders, giving us a diversified gene pool. Jumbo Whites are not feather sexable. They have to be vent sexed. For this reason, I will have chicks availabe as straight run only, or as sexed adults.
jumbo pearl
Our Pearl group consists of one jumbo rooster and five jumbo hens. Again, our rooster is from one breeder and the hens from another. One of my favorite traits of these quail is the fact that they are feather-sexable by around three weeks of age. That is very helpful in being able to identify their genders early on so you can separate out and determine who you will be keeping, selling, or butchering. Contact us and we can help you start or grow your quail covey. You may just be looking for a new roo. We can do that too!
jumbo Tuxedo
Our handsome Tuxedo rooster
Our tuxedo group consists of a jumbo Red Range roo with a five jumbo Red Range hens, all tuxedo pattern.
These are some of our hens as new hatchlings.
Quail can be a great addition to your family's farm or homestead. Since they are quieter and take up less space, they can be kept in areas that chickens cannot. Quail roosters are not nearly as noisy. We keep breeding groups in ground pens that are 3' X 5'. For protection from predators, their pens are kept together inside a large secure run. I ensured I would be breeding roos to unrelated hens by obtaining eggs from different sources. While there is nothing wrong with inbreeding with birds, I wanted to start with a more diversified genetic pool to have less worries as I move forward with my own breeding. Each breeding group consists of a roo from one breeder and hens from at leas two other different breeders. I color band my quail so I can know where each of my breeders originated from.
