Quails (coturnix)

Unlike chickens, quail reach full maturity very quickly and typically begin laying eggs at just 6–8 weeks old. They are a great option for people with limited space who still want a reliable source of eggs or meat.

Quail are also very space-efficient, requiring only about one square foot per bird — making them much more efficient to raise than chickens. Unlike chickens, quail do not use nesting boxes or roosts, which can make their housing setup simpler.

Because of their small size and different dietary needs, quail should not be housed with chickens. They also are not ideal for free ranging, as they are excellent flyers and can easily escape.

Another advantage of quail is that they are much quieter than chickens, making them a better choice for people with close neighbors or smaller properties.
