Jumbo Browns or some would call 'coturnix' quail are the definition of a dual purpose bird, laying approximately 300 eggs per year and can be butchered in 8-10 weeks of age at full maturity. When these birds reach full maturity they can weigh up to 14 ounces and lay 12-16 gram eggs. Jumbos are a very solid and reliable food source for homesteaders and urban farmers. With how quickly they reach maturity at six weeks of age, laying eggs around 6-8 weeks old and reproduce insanely fast, they're small but mighty tool in your arsenal to becoming more self sufficient.

Customer Reviews
We are so happy with our new little pets! We ordered six quail in the middle of the autumn - we were a bit concerned about temperature as we live in the Northeast - but they have settled in wonderfully. Communication with AZ Chickens was informative and kind every step of the way, helping us figure out which birds would be best for us. The birds arrived healthy and in good time after they shipped. We will definitely recommend to our friends who are also considering starting with quail!
I had the most wonderful experience with this company. The quail came perfectly packaged alert, and unharmed. Very healthy and are thriving. 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Everything fantastic!!!
Great experience. Ordered online. Contacted when ordered was ready. Drove out to pick them up. Quail are all happy and healthy in their new home. Will do business again with AZ CHICKENS.
