millytheterrier 12 Posted December 24, 2011 Report Share Posted December 24, 2011 Ive got some of this years coturnix quail for sale. 2 pairs of normal japanese type quail, 1 quartet of goldern italian quail and 4 unsexed bobwhite quail. Wont be long till the hens start laying, couple of weeks max. There 5 weeks old and the bobs are around 3-4 weeks old. bobwhites still need to be kept on heat. Im in Lincolnshire, £20 lot.
