In The Bible what is 'quail'?
There are four references to 'quail' in the Bible, but no description of this bird. I suppose it would be very much like the present day quail. These birds are believed by many to have been the 'Coturnix coturnix', from the pheasant family, which commonly migrate in large flocks, north from Africa to Eqypt around March each year.
Will Coturnix Quail hatch their own eggs?
Yes, they will, but not often. I have raised both Bobwhite and Coturnix Quail for years and never have the Coturnix sat and hatched their own eggs. However, I have had bobwhite hatch their own. This year I had a hen sit on 17 eggs and hatched 14. I found it very interested to see the morning after that the male helped her sit and keep the young warm, just siting side by side in the same nest.
