hi,
Do you know of any type of quail that i can let it go on my lawn without it running away?  i'm not allowed to keep chickens, but i might be allowed for quail, since they dont make too much noise.  i just want to be able to let the quail on my lawn and watch it forage on my lawn.  Is there any type of quail that can do that?

These don't go real far away, and they don't eat or poop much;  but they're boring to watch.

It all depends on whether it is Tyson or Perdue.

My previous 18 Jumbo Bobwhites which I raised for meat, they were very very tamed and docile. In their pens, they would take greens from my hand. (Mind you, my backyard is enclosed with brick walls) Once I experimented taking a pair out of the cage. They stayed mostly around the cage area and free roamed my backyard. On the 4-5 day, a cat caught the female so I put the male back in the pen. If it wasn't for predators, I think I would have had a few successful backyard free roaming Bobwhites.   :laugh:

so you may have a better chance if they are tame and you keep the majority in the pen and just let a few loose.

You might enjoy reading the book "That Quail Robert" about a hand reared bobwhite. It's a nice read about a bob raised as a pet.

Are you ready for them ?

Have pens built for the extra males ?

Rearing pens ?

What are you going to do with them if you have to winter them ?

Hi,
Well, i don't think I'll hatch them maybe in about 3 to 4 months. And I'm  going to get about 20 eggs.  I'm raising them mainly for the ranging personality and also for their eggs.  I used to have chickens a couple of years back, but i had to give them up, when i found out that they were both roosters, i'm not allowed to keep roosters that crow since i live in an urban area, i  miss them very much. And i would enjoy raising a type of bird that has the roaming instinct as the chickens that  i miss the most.
