The Coturnix Quail is the best quail breed to raise for meat and egg right in your backyard. They offer lots of eggs and meat compared to other quail breeds. They belong to the Old World category of Quail birds and tend to be very hardy.
The Coturnix Quail is also known as the Japanese quail, Pharaoh Quail, or Jumbo Quail. They’re the easiest Quail breed to raise, as they have a very calm temperament. If you’re new to homesteading, they’re your best bet.
The Coturnix comes in different colors; it requires a small place and little attention.
The bird reaches maturity in about seven weeks when they start laying eggs. So you don’t have to wait for several months to lay your hands on quality eggs and meat. If you need the hens to lay and hatch their eggs, you’ll need one rooster to about three to seven hens.
