I have amalgamated all my quail breeds for very good reasons. As a result of the very small gene pool in NZ and no importations aloud, all quails in NZ are inbred and related. I am in NZ for 8 years now and made great progress breeding four different breeds of Coturnix, but progress has flattened off as I have to have limited numbers and equally good genetic material is not available in NZ. My solution was to amalgamate all the breeds and only breed a Back Yard Special, resulting in 4 times as many birds to select from and one less selection parameter – colour. This allowed me to make some progress again. I am retired and do this as a hobby – my background is in animal genetics

Hi do you supply seed, I’m interested in the mash but want a quail mix (seed) also, if no then where can i get it from as my quail don’t seem to like most of the seed in the budgie or canary mixes, I can’t seem to find a quail Mix at the pet store.

Are the Anconas standard or bantam. If standard do you have four pullets available?
I have three blue Ancona and two balck Ancona pullets – all standard size. Even though in New Zealand terminology they are still pullets, being 11 months old, they have finished their first season of laying and will resume when the days are getting longer. If you are interested they would be $140 for all five. Please advise. I also have a very nice rooster at $50
Hi, definitely interested. Would I be able to come on Saturday evening around 5:30pm? Only the pullets please.
