Anybody do anything with quail eggs? Ive got a dozen in my fridge from a kid who raises them in my neighborhood. One of his birds escaped and we managed to get her back to him. He was kind enough to return the favor by delivering us a dozen eggs. Now we need to figure out what to do with them. I could make breakfast with them. For me. Not sure what everyone else will eat. They sure are cool.

after they've been hard boiled and peeled, roll them in your favorite batter and deep fry. Like scotch eggs.

Oh man.

Quail eggs are very healthy and tasty. I'll take a small pan of 25 quail eggs over 3 chicken eggs any day.
What'd you do with 'em?

Nothing yet. Still in the fridge.

Gonna need some more property here at some point.

HBO! I want some quail to raise. I was looking into getting a few hundred to turn loose around my place. I own a mile long stretch of Willow's along a drainage that they would love. I have an incubator so I think I could just hatch a bunch and raise them up big enough to release in a large pen and then release them when they are acclimated to the temps outside. Sound feasable?

This kid had coturnix quail. (Not sure I spelled that correctly.) He had 15 of them in a series of small cages. Didn't take up much room at all, and produced eggs like crazy. He had a light on them 24/7 and they were still producing a dozen eggs a day over winter. The one we rescued for him was a 4 year old bird.

I had a couple pickled not too long ago and they were real good.

Get some ikura (chum salmon caviar) sushi and break them raw over the sushi.

I'd pop that yolk and hit the river with the eggs. Can't do it ;)

That is gross on top of gross for me. I hate fish eggs but I might hate raw yoke even more.

Scotched egg with some local pork sausage.
Hard boil, wrap in sausage, bread and fry.

Oh man. We felt like they were pushing their life span so we boiled them up and just ate some plain hard boiled eggs last night so they wouldn't go to waste but I talked to the kid today and we're going to get some more this weekend. Might have to try that. Sounds great. Thanks bud.

You can bake the scotch eggs, they turn out great.
