Finally discovered the first egg yesterday, and had another one waiting for me today. Now if all four would start laying instead of one I'd be in business. Still pretty cool to find the first egg. man I must be getting old.

That's cool. I run to the balcony every morning in hopes of red tomatoes and today I FINALLY have a celebrity ripening. I must be getting old too.

Just decided, gonna build a coop and add a few quail to the farm. ;D I love quail eggs. Gonna get some Coturnix quail. Thinking one male and four hens. They can all be housed in a relatively small coop and the girls will lay an egg a day during breeding season. March thru September, or year round if you give them a tleast 14 hours of artificial lighting. Plust they are mature and ready to egg after just a few weeks.

Quail eggs? How many does it take for an omelette? 8?

Man would you give up on thoise stupid fainting goats already. Lol. Yeah probably 8 quail eggs to make an omelette, but that would be a slap in the face of the eggs. Quail eggs deserve to be fried or poached. Ask Gordon Ramsay that question and he'd probably punch you. ;D
