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.

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.
