Bobwhite Quail Eggs are larger eggs that those if the fowls. The Bobwhites are large birds therefore one male and one female are kept together in one cage. The birds are to be housed in well-ventilated buildings in wire cages which are fitted with ramps designed to roll the eggs out so that the pair keeps breeding and the eggs are clean.
The wire cages also ensure a clean hygienic environment for the birds as their droppings automatically fall out of their cages to trays below. These droppings can be sold as guano and the richness of the guano will be defined by the quality of feed you give the birds.
Bobwhite Quail Eggs hatch at a good rate of 99% and grow into large disease resistant birds sometimes they weigh close to 14 ounces, a good portion.
Keep the temperature at a constant of 99.5 degrees Fahrenheit with some humidity. Most farms selling Bobwhite Quail Eggs are into this business since generations and have been selectively breeding their strains since years. Therefore you can choose to buy the eggs of larger meatier birds which have flight ability with long flight feathers and tail.
They are also bred on the basis of their breeding abilities of producing large numbers of eggs which are disease resistant increasing the productivity of your operation. The selectively bred Bobwhite Quail Eggs will interbreed with the regular Bobwhite on hatching to carry on the operation you began. Though selective breeding will help the quality of your eggs and stock too.
