Meet Nugget and Nugget’s first egg!
We’ve gotten cortunix quail. They’re supposed to have a better feed-to-egg conversion rate than chickens. Plus, they’re quiet and smaller so it’s much less likely for the neighbors to notice/care. They sound more like wild birds.
I’m just so excited to have fresh eggs again!
