Aren’t they just the cutest little fried eggs?! We have a few quail that are good little layers, their eggs are pretty small. It takes about 3 eggs to make up the size of a chicken egg. I’ll save up my quail eggs for a few days and give the kids a quail egg feast for breakfast, they each eat about 5 fried quail eggs(30 eggs) if I have that many :)
Quail eggs fry up pretty much the same as chicken eggs, but their shells are very different. The membrane beneath the shell is really tough so you can’t crack the eggs like you can a chicken egg, you either puncture with a sharp scissor and cut a slit to open or use a very sharp knife and hack the end off. This is my preferred method but it takes a little practice. We love our little quail they are sweet little birds and provide a supplemental food source to our family! It’s especially nice in the winter when my chicken’s aren’t laying as well. Thanks girls!
