African Harlequin Quail
​
A rare quail from southern South Africa. Bigger than a button and smaller than a coturnix. Shortest incubation period of all quail; 15 days. Very personable and always curious. 
Bobwhite Quail
Bobwhite quail are a well known gamebird. Many color variations have come about over the years.  The colors I have are snowflake, silver and fawn. Although they come in different colors, the male still has the traditional bobwhite call.  They are a hardy bird and are easy to keep. Incubation is 22-23 days.

Native to Eritrea, Ethiopia and Sudan; introduced to the Hawaiian Islands back in 1957 where they adapted quite well.  Can be seen roaming wild throughout the islands.
