Quail Farming,quick Cash:

Quail farming is an uncommon farming business in Nigeria, but the few people that have embraced it are not only smiling to banks, they are also enjoying both the nutritional and health values derived from consuming it
Considering the large number of poultry farmers in Kaduna that have embraced quail farming, it is no doubt one booming farming business that is gradually taking over chicken poultry business in most parts of the north. The high rate of returns and low cost of investment as well rearing them are some of the reasons many farmers are fast resorting to quail farming. In Zaria alone, there are more than 50 farms where quail are reared and sold. The fact that the birds grow and reach maturity stage faster and lay eggs within two months, compared with the six-month maturity period of chickens for whether egg-laying or consumption, attract them to farmers who see the business as a better and more sustainable investment to explore.
From market surveys both in Zaria and Kaduna, a female quail bird sells for N500 while the male goes for between N250 and N300. Its speckled eggs go for between N20 and N25. The bird’s high nutritional and market value encourage many chicken poultry farmers to abandon the business for quail farming. The NEWS gathered that these financial and health benefits, especially the high and quick returns on investment, largely explained farmers’ rush into the business in Jos where it first started, and in Kano, Kaduna and other states in the north where it is booming now. But it is very difficult for people in the southwest who wish to go into quail farming due to the problem of getting quail chicks for starting. Good news the problem has now been solved because you can easily get it now in Ibadan. I started the business just three months ago but glory be to God I earn nothing less than 2000 Naira every day.
BENEFIT OF QUAIL FARMING
It is very easy to maintain
It is not capital intensive compare to poultry farming
High return in a very short time (quail start laying at 45 day old)
It require small space
Quail egg are now recommended in the hospital which makes a good business
Here are some additional benefits you might get from eating quail eggs.:
* acquire a strong immunity system and improve metabolism.
* contain important quantity of calcium easy to assimilate.
* help healing gastritis, ulcer.
* increase hemoglobin level, remove heavy metals, toxins from blood.
* help in the treatment of tuberculosis, asthma,.
* diabetes
* contain ovomucoid protein, used in the production of anti allergic drugs.
* help inhibit cancerous growth.
* help eliminate and remove stones from liver, kidneys and bladder.
* stimulate intellectual activity.
* may accelerate recuperation after blood stroke and help strengthen heart muscle.
* are a powerful stimulant of intimate potency. They nourish the prostrate gland with useful substances, phosphorus, proteins and vitamins and therefore help restore intimate potency.

Goshen360:
hey guys,

sorry for my late reply, just that i have been a bit busy with some activities. concerning Grasscutter breeding, u dont mate animals of the same gene 2gether it leads to inbreeding as someone said. moreso, seun said he has not seen pple eating grasscutter, funny! its the most popular bush meat delicacy that is mostly required dis days.

thanks
This animal can mate its sister or mother like goat monkey cat and others. What i want to ask is if they spill blood like dog when they are read to mate?

No they don't. They show signs of readiness for mating however...e.g, mounting on each other.

oga pavemgo it was a pleasure doing business with you. I also want to thank you for the free advice you gave me which prevented further mortality. I could have suffered great loss. God bless you sir. I want to know if you have seen your grasscutters actually mate because ever since i started crossing them i havent caught them in the act. I read that they mate only at night or could their shyness also cause resistance to mating in human presence?

Grasscutter farming has become one of the mini-livestock rearing that is generating millions of Naira for many Nigerians. The good thing about the business is that there are ready buyers waiting for you. Imagine you get an order from a local restaurant to be supplying them four to five mature grasscutters everyday. You'll find out that you can't keep up with the demand, as time goes on.

JustinVille is an agro-resort that has been breeding grasscutters commercially.
