Celadon Coturnix Quail Hatching Eggs
Love a colorful egg basket? Celadon Coturnix quail lay beautiful blue-shelled eggs—a rare and charming twist for any poultry enthusiast. While the flavor is just like any quail egg,
the visual appeal of the celadon blue makes every collection feel special. These birds have been selectively bred and test-hatched through 2023 to ensure they carry the true homozygous celadon gene for consistent blue egg production.
Celadon is a recessive genetic trait, meaning both parents must carry the gene. Males don’t lay eggs, so the process requires careful breeding, hatching, and record-keeping—now offered to you as true celadon hatching eggs from verified stock.
