Quail eggs are small speckled eggs. Quail eggs are considered a delicacy and has been prized as a dietary and healing food. While quail eggs are small (10-12 g), they are packed with many biologically active substances we need to be healthy. They are an abundant source of useful trace elements and vitamins. Their nutritional value is 3-4 times higher than that of chicken eggs. They contain 13% proteins while chicken eggs provide a bit more than 11%. Quail eggs contain 140 μg vitamin B1 compared to 50 μg in chicken eggs, and they contain twice as much vitamins A and B2. And quail eggs provide five times as much iron and potassium as chicken eggs. They also are richer in phosphorus and calcium. Quail eggs are considered a dietary food. The thing is Quail eggs do not have “bad” cholesterol (LDL) and are very rich in “good” (HDL) cholesterol. Regular consumption of Quail eggs can help against many diseases.

There are many health benefits of Quail eggs

Recently we had someone from Blacksburg request 50 quail (laying hens) and they backed out because I was a few short.  So currenlty we have over 100 quail, many of them are for sale.  We are also loaded up with Quail eggs, but we are selling them as fast as my quail hen can lay them.  We also retain some Quail eggs for our own hatching, eating and pickling.  So if you want some Fresh Quail eggs, currently I am getting about 20 or so a day and each day another quail starts to lay.  I have several age groups, I also have quail breeding pairs for sale,  you can also buy them if you wish to release for hunting.  Most of my Quail are for sale for $6 each, the older ones that have stopped laying can be had for $5 and the babies, currently 2 weeks old can be bought for $5.  We welcome you to visit our Virginia Poultry farm so you can pick a few out for yourself
