Our Jumbo Brown Coturnix Quail average 13-16 oz at maturity—nearly twice the size of standard Coturnix—making them an excellent choice for both meat production and large egg yields. To ensure optimal fertility, our breeders are paired at a 4 hens to 1 rooster ratio, with fertility rates examined weekly to maintain a 92% or higher success rate.

We ship all hatching eggs via Insured Priority Mail, ensuring they arrive as safely as possible. Each egg is carefully packed in custom shipping foam with protective layers between the inserts, then securely placed inside the shipping box for maximum protection during transit.

While most packages arrive on time and undamaged, shipping delays and rough handling can occasionally occur—factors beyond our control. To account for this, we include extra hatching eggs at no additional cost to help offset any potential damage during transportation.

Shipping:
All egg orders are shipped via USPS Priority Mail within 2–5 business days. Once shipped, delivery typically takes 1–3 business days. You'll receive a notification with a tracking number once your order is on its way. Please allow extra time for back-orders, holidays, and weekends. Shipping is available within the United States only.

Returns:
We do not accept returns, exchanges, or issue refunds for shipped eggs. However, all packages are insured. If your order arrives damaged, please contact us immediately—we’ll assist you in filing a claim with USPS.

When you receive your hatching eggs, handle them carefully and open the box gently. Inspect each egg for cracks or damage—do not incubate damaged eggs.

Before Incubation:

• Let eggs rest for 12-24 hours, pointed side down, at room temperature before incubating. This is especially important in cold weather.
• Do not wash your eggs—this can remove their natural protective coating.
• Turn on your incubator and allow the temperature to stabilize at 99.5°F with 35-45% humidity while the eggs are resting.

Incubation Process:

• After 12-24 hours, place eggs in the incubator and turn them at least 4 times per day.
• Incubate for 14 days, checking temperature and humidity daily.
• On day 15, move eggs into lockdown:
• Around day 16-18, chicks will begin hatching. Wait 24-36 hours before removing chicks to prevent shrink-wrapping the remaining eggs.

Following these steps will maximize your hatch rate and chick health.

To ensure a smooth transition for your Jumbo Coturnix quail chicks, set up the brooder at least a day before they hatch. This allows you to stabilize the temperature and ensure everything is ready.

1. Temperature & Heat Management

• Maintain a temperature range of 85°F in the coldest area and 100°F in the warmest section to allow chicks to self-regulate their comfort.
• Reduce the temperature by 5°F per week until chicks are fully feathered (around 3-4 weeks old).
• Use a heat plate (preferred) or a heat lamp positioned to create a warm and cool zone.

2. Food & Water Placement

• Food: Place near the heat source for easy access.
• Water: Keep at room temperature or slightly warmer, positioned away from the heat source to prevent overheating.
• Use shallow water dishes with marbles or pebbles to prevent drowning.

3. Feeding Guide

• First 6 weeks: Provide 28-30% protein game bird starter crumbles to support rapid growth.
• First 2 weeks: Grind the starter crumbles into finer pieces to help small chicks eat more easily.
• After 7 weeks: Transition to 16-22% layer feed or mix half starter crumble and half layer feed for a balanced diet.

By following these guidelines, your quail chicks will have a strong, healthy start with the proper nutrition and environment for growth. Let me know if you need any refinements! 😊
