On this episode of the Poultry Nerds Podcast, we sit down with Brent from Zero G Quail Farm to talk all about frozen quail feeders, who buys them, how they are sized, packaged, processed, and shipped, and why they can be a valuable outlet for quail breeders.

We also go down some fun rabbit holes, including the history of quail hatched in space, the strange legal gray areas around keeping quail, and the surprising demand from the falconry community, reptile owners, raw feeders, and more.

In this episode, we cover:

What frozen feeder quail are and why people buy them

Falconry birds, reptiles, zoos, rescues, and raw feeding markets

How breeders use feeders as an outlet for culls

Sizing birds by weight for customers

Packaging and freezing tips that make birds look better and store better

Cervical dislocation vs. CO2 dispatch

Handling breeder birds vs. younger birds

Shipping challenges, dry ice, delivery logistics, and customer expectations

Using more of the bird for added value

Why setting boundaries matters if you want to turn quail into a business

If you raise quail, breed coturnix, sell feeders, or want to understand another side of the poultry world, this episode is packed with practical insight and real-world experience.
