Our Quail Products
Frequently Asked Quail Questions (FAQQ)
When do orders ship?
Orders received before noon on Monday will ship by Tuesday, or by Wednesday if Monday is a holiday.
Which products always ship fresh?
- Semi-boneless Quail
- Whole Quail Bone-in
- Quail Knots
- Quail Breasts
Why do you only ship on Tuesday or Wednesday?
This is so our customers get the freshest quail possible. On most weeks we will process the birds Monday afternoon and Tuesday morning and ship to you Tuesday afternoon. Additionally, we don’t want to take a chance and have your order sitting in some warehouse over the weekend if we were to ship later in the week. We will ship all orders with the intent they arrive the next day or 2nd day.
Is shipping included?
Shipping is included for TX, AR, LA, NM, and OK. There is an additional fee for all other states due to the higher cost to ship to those locations.
What’s in the quail?
100% Quail – we don’t add anything to them. You are the chef and we want your creativity to shine through. It is nice to have only one ingredient – Quail.
Do you sell any other meats?
Nope – we decided to be laser focused on one thing and do that to the best of our ability.
What type of Quail are they?
We raise Coturnix quail – specifically the white and the brown Texas A&M Coturnix. This is an article from 2005 and helps provide a nice recap of the history of the Quail.
What do we feed them?
A vegetarian diet with supplemental vitamins and minerals – very simple. Also we don’t use antibiotics or growth hormones (federal law prohibits this). So the fresh quail you are getting is as close to raising and processing them yourself as possible.
Are the Quail GMO free?
The quail are raised by normal breeding and they have not been genetically modified. We use an all-natural vegetarian diet but we are not able to certify that all of the feed ingredients are GMO free at this time. The ability to sustainably source GMO free feed is a challenge to all animal husbandry. This is a 2015 article relating to this topic and it is helpful in understanding the challenges and cost.
You guys are hard to get on the phone / why is email better for reaching out for questions?
We have a small team that works really hard and we are not always in the office. Email allows us to catch our breath and respond as soon as possible. If you have any questions or concerns please email us at office@diamondhquail.com.
Can I get frozen quail?
Yes, just not from Diamond H Quail – you would need to work with Broken Arrow Ranch to get frozen quail. They also have some other great proteins available.
How long has Diamond H Quail been around?
Diamond H Ranch Quail started in Bandera, TX in 1995. We have had changes over the years, and we are still making the best quail you can get.
