Celedon Coturnix Hatching Eggs
The Japanese call the birds uzura, and have raised them for centuries. Early American colonists called them "Bible quail" and found them to be economical providers of protein. Modern homesteaders, however, refer to them as Coturnix (from their generic name) and delight in the virtues of these astounding little fowl. Coturnix quail, you see, require no more care than do chickens, but they mature faster, produce more eggs, need less food and space, and have more uses than virtually any other kind of domestic poultry!
-What is "True Blue" -
We have been selectively breeding for blue eggs and it's turned out to be a long-time project we've had. I am happy to say that we have finally gotten to the point where our Celedon's breed completely "True". This means that 100% of these quail will lay blue eggs. This is quite a big deal in the Celedon world (and our little "world" at Spring Hollow Acres!) Currently, we are one of only a couple breeders in the country breeding this variety of quail who have achieved "True Blue" laying Celedons.

-Shipping-
The shipping fee is fixed at $22 across the U.S., irrespective of location. Hatching eggs are dispatched in the order of purchase, following a first-come, first-serve approach, ensuring fairness in the shipping process. However, if you wish to purchase multiple breeds, additional shipping charges will apply to each different breed. Additionally, each breed will be shipped at different times to accommodate their specific laying schedules.
Hatching eggs are dispatched via USPS Priority Mail throughout the week. Once your hatching eggs have been shipped, you will receive an email from us containing your tracking number.
Although we typically encounter positive outcomes with USPS, we avoid labeling packages as "fragile" or requesting special handling. Our past experiences have shown that such markings can result in rough treatment of the parcel. If you have specific preferences for markings like "fragile" or "hatching eggs," or if you would like us to coordinate the holding of your package at the Post Office, please kindly email us with your requests.
Given the numerous variables influencing success or failure during incubation, we are unable to offer any guarantees regarding hatch rate or development.
- Estimated Egg Lay Date -
The estimated lay date for these hatching eggs is usually around the first of March. Please realize this is our "best guess" as many factors such as inclement weather, stressors, and various other factors can affect the laying pattern of our birds.
