Hello Friends!        

                       The 2025 breeding season is just around the corner, and we are busy getting pens ready, cleaning and disinfecting the feeders and waterers in preparation for the start of the laying season. The weather here in Tucson has been great with spring-like temperatures that have the pheasants all excited and ready for spring!  The Button Quail have been laying steadily, and most orders are being fulfilled within a few days after received.

Thank you for all the early inquiries as to availability of eggs and chicks this year. We are updating the website and have enabled the pre-order buttons so you can get in on the early egg orders. The best fertility and availability are found in the early season eggs. Please be aware that most eggs will not become available for shipping until mid-March and later so by pre-ordering you get on the list for the eggs, and we will follow up with a more definitive ship date once production has started and fertility has been confirmed. 

 We anticipate having a good supply of California Valley Quail and Gamble's Quail eggs available, but you should order early as these tend to sell out every year. We will be adding Texas Blue Scaled Quail hatching eggs this season. These will be in short supply so definitely order early to get on the list. These beautiful, friendly birds tend to be the last to start laying, so don't expect to receive these until late May.

Butler's Bobwhite Quail hatching eggs, our most requested hatching egg will be in good supply for the 2025 season, but you should order early to ensure you get some of these much sought after eggs as they tend to sell out every year.​

​

Egg production was robust in 2024, and we expect the same going into 2025. We were also able to introduce some excellent new bloodlines to our Reeve's Pheasant, Purebred Lady Amherst's and Golden Pheasant breeding programs. We are constantly looking for new breeds to add to our offerings on the website, so visit us often.

Our Button Quail are producing really well, and we have a great selection of young adults available for shipping.

 Keep an eye on the website and visit us often as we add some new offerings this year such as hatching egg assortments, Celedon Coturnix Quail that lay a pretty blue egg and maybe even a few pheasant and quail chicks as the hatching season gets underway! We will also be adding White Bobwhite Quail and Tennessee Red Quail this year, but supplies will be limited as we increase our flocks.

All of our birds are raised under natural conditions, meaning we do not stimulate early or prolonged production thru the use of artificial lighting as we feel the birds deserve as natural a cycle as possible, so please be patient as we let Mother Nature run her course and the birds come into production. We will give our best guess for availability based on historical data but there are many factors that come into play that can determine how early or late the birds come into production.
