Summary: TweetCoturnix Quail Eggs with a Chicken Egg for Scale. MonvalleyPrepper (aka Brad Davies) is a long time member of the TSP audience and community. A few months ago he chimed in on a comments thread here at the TSP Blog about raising quail When I heard the shear volume of production in such a tiny foot print I knew I had to get him on the air. It got better though! Next, I heard he lived in the suburbs, had neighbors on either side. That inspire of that he was able to produce in the range of 20,000 eggs a year and hundreds of meat animals. Now get this his neighbors didn’t even know they were there! Once I heard all that I knew how important this could be for other preppers. I also realized it might be a solution for many of our members that want to homestead in the city or the burbs and not call down the wrath of code enforcement officials or blue hairs running the local HOA.
