    Haha! When I first brought the birds home my 10yo stepson asked me what we should name the birds. I told him, "Don't name them bud. We're gonna end up eating them". He just said, "Ohhhhhh, OK. Do they taste good?" Kids are funny as hell.

    If/when you get hens laying a crazy amount, you might try and sell them to local fancy restaurants. Quail eggs are quite a delicacy for many dishes.
    Um, he lives in Gilpin County, there aren't any "fancy" restaurants.

    I would buy some of the eggs and/or quail. Mmmmm

    Stage Stop might be an option. Heather loves that kind of stuff.

    First egg! I was watching the birds after making a new feeder to reduce waste. This bird lays down, sticks it's legs out straight and starts breathing really heavy. I think, "Awesome. They have some disease already."

    Then the bird jumps up and there's an egg sitting there. So cool!
