[/color][color=#990000] Quail Facts There are 6 different species of quail: Bobwhite Quail, California Quail, Mountain Quail, Gambel's Quail, Scaled Quail, and Mearn's Quail. The Northern Bobwhite, or Bobwhite Quail, is the most widespread of the 6 species in the United Stated. Bobwhite quail range in weight from 6-8 ounces and in height from 6-8 inches. Bobwhite quail are ground dwelling birds. Bobwhite quail feed mainly on insects. The male quail's upper body is reddish-brown while the belly is pale and streaked. There is a white stripe above the eye with a white patch inside the black area around the throat. In females, this region is caramel-colored. During early fall, bobwhite quails form into social groups called coveys. Coveys spend the night on the ground in a circle with their heads pointed outward to conserve heat and to avoid nocturnal predators. Males begin their familiar "Bob-Bob-White" call to attract hens for mating in the spring. Nesting occurs from May through September. Clutch sizes vary from 10-20 eggs. The average amount is 12 eggs laid one a day. Incubation lasts 23-24 days. The chicks follow their parents upon hatching and fledge in 6-7 days. Chicks have a 30% mortality rate. Life expectancy of a bobwhite quail is less than one year. The bobwhite quail feeds mainly on insects. Due to the small heart of the quail, the average annual home range size is 40 acres. Some quail's home range is up to 200 acres depending on conditions. The flight speed of a bobwhite quail is 20-40mph. They can only fly short distances because flying raises their body temperature. If this temperature gets too high the bird will perish. Domestic cats, skunks, foxes, raccoons, owls, snakes, dogs, and hunters are predators of quail. The major factors leading to the decreasing numbers of bobwhite quail are habitat loss, intensive agricultural practices, and harsh winters |
