Best Answer

Quail when plucked does look a bit like a tiny chicken but it does not taste the same as chicken. It has a more 'game ' taste and I find it to be more oily in the mouth. Bear in mind that an average quail is only about 5 ounces so you will probably need three to make a meal.

No, quail are also known as "Bobwhites" because of their call. Chickens do not make this call. Chickens are a cross between 4 different Asian birds. Quail are related to pheasant.
