Coturnix quail (jumbo) adult birds from verified U.S. breeders. Request a quote and we'll match you with NPIP-certified breeders in your state within 1 business day.
Coturnix (Japanese) Quail are the fastest-maturing poultry: lay at 6 weeks, butcher at 7-8 weeks, eggs hatch in 17 days. The 'two birds per square foot' option for backyard meat + egg production. Jumbo strain dresses out at 12-14 oz.
Adult birds are proven layers or show birds at point-of-lay or beyond. Expect to pay a premium for breeding-quality adults and to coordinate pickup or a USPS adult-bird shipment. Always ask for current photos, age, lay history, and biosecurity practices.
FastPoultry is a broker, not a hatchery. We don't take payment for birds. Every breeder in our network is verified as NPIP certified, which means their flock has tested clean for Pullorum-Typhoid and qualifies for interstate shipment. After we send you matched breeders, you arrange payment, pickup, or shipping directly with the breeder of your choice.

Ask for current photos, exact age, lay history if hens, line and lineage if breeding stock, NPIP status, and biosecurity practices. Reputable breeders welcome these questions and provide written health and lineage records.
Pickup is the safest path for adult birds. USPS does ship adult poultry via Priority and Express Mail in approved carriers, but stress is higher than with chicks. Confirm carrier, transit time, and live-arrival policy with matched breeders before you commit.
