Jumbo Pharaoh Coturnix Quail Hatching Eggs

Jumbo Pharaoh Coturnix Quail Hatching Eggs are a classic- but better! The feather plumage on this bird is often described as “wild type”. Their patterning is consistent with the Japanese quail found in the wild. Chicks will hatch with yellow down and black stripes. By 3-4 weeks, roosters will display mostly plain, rust-colored ventral (underside/chest) plumage and hen ventral plumage will appear to have a black speckled pattern. As part of our Jumbo line, these birds consistently average over 12 ounces at full maturity which is 10 weeks after hatch. Typically with sufficient lighting and nutritional needs being met, hens will begin laying eggs around 6-7 weeks after hatch. The size and consistent laying tendencies of this variation allow it to be an excellent choice to be a dual purpose addition to any farm or Coturnix hobbyist.
