Quail Eggs arriving

I took a wee peek into the Quails quarters adn lo and behold look what I found! Now do they take 1, 2 or three minutes to soft boil????

Kakarikis & Quail arrive

We have had 2 sets of new arrivals this week. A local breeder supplied 2 female & one male Kakariki so our two lonley males are very happy. Looks like nesting sites are being selected already so we hope for egg news very soon!

We have also aquired 4 Californian Quail - Three females and a male

In the hope of having a supply of eggs for the kitchen at Birds Ferry Lodge. Early days at this stage!
