If you’ve ever wondered how quail eggs compare to chicken eggs, here’s a little look straight from my homestead. I snapped a picture of four freshly gathered quail eggs sitting beside one chicken egg. It takes about four quail eggs to equal one chicken egg.
My quail girls stay busy and lay consistently, giving me a steady supply of these beautiful speckled eggs. Don’t let their tiny size fool you, they’re packed with rich flavor and great nutrition. They can be cooked in many ways, including frying, baking, poaching, and pickling. They are perfect for adding to recipes in place of chicken eggs.
Whether you raise quail yourself or you’re just curious about these little treasures, quail eggs are a charming and useful addition to any harvest to table lifestyle. Sometimes it’s the smallest things that bring the most joy. 🥚💛
