ABOUT QUAILIE
We began our business in Country Cork after seeing the demand in stores across the country for Quail Eggs. These exclusive delicacies are hard to find in local stores and must often be imported from other countries, usually France. Given Ireland’s great reputation and time-honoured tradition in farming, it seemed to make sense that we should produce Quail Eggs right here – after all, Irish people love buying Irish produce.
And so far we’ve been supplying shops and butchers in Dublin, Cork, Limerick, Galway, and beyond. But we’re not stopping there: our research indicates that consumers would like to see this product available right in their local supermarkets.
We’re working hard to make our 100% Irish Quail Eggs across all of Ireland

What are Quails?
The Common Quail, Coturnix, is a small (17 cm) rotund bird in the pheasant family Phasianidae. It is widespread and is found in parts of Europe, Asia and Africa with several subspecies recognized. It is bred and kept as poultry in some parts of the world both for eggs and meat. Quail is a terrestrial species, feeding on seeds and insects on the ground. It is notoriously difficult to see, keeping hidden in crops, and reluctant to fly, preferring to creep away instead. Even when flushed, it keeps low and soon drops back into cover.
Often the only indication of its presence is the distinctive “wet-my-lips” repetitive song of the male. The call is uttered mostly in the mornings, evenings and sometimes at night. It is a strongly migratory bird, unlike most game birds. Upon attaining an age of 6-8 weeks, this quail breeds on open arable farmland and grassland across most of Europe and Asia, laying 6-18 eggs in a ground nest. The eggs take from 16-18 days to hatch.
