Benefits about quail meat and egg

Quail meat
Quail meat is a sweet and delicate white game meat with extremely low skin fat and low cholesterol value. Quail meat is rich in micronutrients and a wide range of vitamins including the B complex, folate and vitamin E and K. It is therefore recommended for people with high cholesterol levels and those who want to maintain a low level of cholesterol.
Quail eggs
Quail eggs are very delicious and comparable in taste to free-range chicken eggs. Their nutritional value is 3 – 4 times higher than that of chicken eggs. Quail eggs contain 13% protein while chicken eggs have about 11%. Quail eggs have 140µg of vitamin B1, compared to 50µg in chicken eggs. Quail eggs are much richer in vitamin B2, iron, potassium, calcium and phosphorus than chicken eggs. 
Quail eggs are rich in HDL cholesterol, (the ‘good’ cholesterol), so even senior citizens can eat them. Quail eggs have low cholesterol levels and are rich in choline, a chemical essential for brain function. 
Some authors indicate that health benefits of quail eggs include: 
•  Arthritis 
•  Gastritis
•  Treatment of anaemia 
•  Remove toxins and heavy metals from the blood 
•  Have strong anti-cancer effects, and may help inhibit cancerous growth

If children eat at least two eggs daily, they grow better and are less likely to suffer from infectious diseases.
Quail chicks 
Quail chicks are very delicate and are extremely sensitive to cold weather. At temperature of 28 degree centigrade, the chicks do not need further heating. 
However, the farmer should observe birds for signs of cold such as clogging together for warmth and then provide some heat immediately.

This is a useful by-product from the quails and it is easily collected from the cages designed to facilitate this. It is good organic manure that has a high nitrogen content and that is easy to apply to the crops.
