Quail, often known by nicknames such as button quail or coturnix quail, are small, ground-dwelling birds native to various regions worldwide, including Europe, Asia, and North America. Originating from grasslands and scrublands, these birds have compact bodies with short necks and intricately patterned plumage that helps them blend into their natural environment. Physically, quails are characterised by their rounded wings and distinctive calls, such as the famous "bobwhite" whistle of some North American species. Known for their gentle temperament, quails are social birds, often forming small flocks, making them suitable for both beginner and experienced poultry keepers. They thrive in environments that offer dense cover and ample forage, feeding on seeds, insects, and plants.

Whether you are looking for quail chicks for sale or considering them as a low-maintenance addition to your home aviary, quails are a charming species that suit rural and suburban settings well.

FAQs

Is quail better than chicken?

Quail eggs are more nutrient-dense per gram compared to chicken eggs, offering higher levels of protein, vitamin B12, iron, phosphorus, and selenium, making them a highly nutritious alternative. Quail meat contains more copper, iron, and certain B vitamins than chicken meat, although chicken breast has more vitamin B3 (niacin). Additionally, quail require less space, mature quickly, and consume less feed, making them easier to raise in smaller spaces such as backyards.

Why can't you eat quail for 30 days?

There is no widely recognised health reason or regulation that prohibits eating quail continuously for 30 days. Any caution about a 30-day restriction might stem from traditional or cultural beliefs or individual allergies, but no scientific evidence supports a mandatory avoidance period for consuming quail.

Do quail lay eggs without a rooster?

Yes, female quail can lay eggs without the presence of a rooster, but these eggs will be unfertilised and cannot hatch into chicks. A rooster is only necessary if fertilised eggs are desired for breeding purposes.

Can I keep quails in my garden in the UK?

You can keep quail in your garden in the UK as long as you comply with local housing and animal welfare regulations. Quail require secure, predator-proof housing and are quieter and need less space than chickens. However, they do not free-range well and usually stay within enclosed areas. It's advisable to check local council or housing association rules, which might limit poultry keeping or the keeping of roosters.
