Very cool!! I had looked at buying eggs off eBay. Definitely not cheap if you can even find them. Next one going to be a mearns?

Please post more pictures of the rare quail if you get a chance. I don't think too many people here have seen either. I have a female mearns here in the freezer. I'm waiting for a definite ID on a male before I squeeze the trigger on a mearns again.

Do you also raise any of the tragopans, wood ducks or mandarins?
