A perfect quail farming business plan should include almost everything related to this business such as your production purpose, products you want to produce, housing, feeding, breeding, health care and marketing.
Quail Farming Business Plan
I think, you have already read a lot of books, webpages, magazines and newspaper about quail farming, and learned that ‘quail farming is highly profitable’. Yes that’s true. Quail farming is absolutely a very profitable business. But before starting, you have to make a good business plan and have to work according to the plan. Quail farming require less capital or investment than raising any other poultry birds. You can start this business with a very small investment. You can start with a limited number of 40 to 50 birds. You will get back your total invested money within a very short period, then use the profit for extending your farm production gradually. All you need for making your quail farming business highly profitable is to make a viable business plan and work according to the plan. It will also be beneficial for you, if you can practically visit some quail farms near your area. By visiting some farms practically, you will get a clear idea about the pros and corns of quail farming business. And it will help you to run your business perfectly. However, read the following discussion for making an effective quail farming business plan.
What is Your Production Purpose?
Why do you want to start quail farming business? Determine your production purpose first. You can start quail farming business for the purpose of making profit, fulfilling your daily family nutritional demands and just for fun. Make a clear idea about your production purpose. Although some people start raising some quails as a hobby and turn their hobbies to a profitable business later.
Quail Products
What type of quail products do you want to produce? You can start raising quails for the purpose of producing eggs or meat. Visit some of your nearest local market and try to understand which quail products have high demand and value. Producing those products which have a great demand in your local market is a good idea. Because your production process will be much easier and profitable, if you can sell your products in your local market. So take a clear decision about the products that you are going to produce from your quail farming business. Usually you can raise quails for producing meat and eggs or for running a breeding business.
- Raising Quails For Meat: Meat producing quails are called broiler quail. There are numerous broiler quail breeds available, although raising broiler quail is not as popular as raising the layers.
- Raising Quails For Eggs: Regular egg producing quails are known as layer quails. Quails lay eggs almost daily, they can lay about 300 eggs yearly. Although egg production slow down from the second year. As a result, commercial quail farmer keep their layer quail for one year.
- Quail Breeding Business: You can also start quail breeding business, supply day old chicks or fertilized eggs.
Housing
Housing play a very important role for quail farming business. Quails need a good house, that has all types of required facilities for their proper growth and better production. Ensure proper ventilation system and adequate flow of fresh air inside the house. Raising quails in cages has many advantages than floor raising system. And most of the people like to raise quails in cage system. Visit some farms near your area and look for their raising system. If they are raising in case system, then you can copy their cage design.
Feeding
Feeding your birds well balanced and nutritious feed will help to keep them healthy and productive. Quails eat a very less amount of feed daily compared to other poultry birds, such as chicken or ducks. An adult quail can eat a maximum of 20 to 30 grams of feed daily. Be very careful about the amount of protein in their feed. Nowadays many large or small poultry feed producing companies are producing commercial feeds for quails. This type of commercial feed contain all types of necessary nutrients and you can easily feed it to your quails. Along with providing well balanced and nutritious feed, ensure adequate supply of clean and fresh water.
Breeding
For successful breeding purpose, you have to keep male and female quails on a proper ratio. Most effective ratio for successful breeding is 5:1. That means, one male with every 5 female quails. Quails don’t hatch their eggs. So you can also plan for purchasing an incubator for hatching their eggs.
Health Care
Quails are highly disease resistant. Diseases and other health issues are less in quails. By proper care and management, you can keep your birds healthy and productive and free from all types illness or health issues.
Marketing
Marketing is very important factor for successful quail farming business. Try to determine the demands of quail products in your local market. Except good marketing facilities, you will not be able to make maximum profit from your business. You can try asking your relatives and friends for help. Make the people in your area conscious about the benefits of quail eggs and meat by placing posters around your area. Inform the people about your products and ask them to tell others. You can also distribute leaflets. You don’t have to worry much about marketing, when your farm will be popular enough.
We think, this quail farming business plan guide will help you a lot for starting and maintaining a profitable business. Always take good care of your birds and they will definitely reward you by giving you their maximum production. Wish your success!

Happy new year. Many thanks for the Quail farming information from your site. I want to start Quail farming but have three questions I wish your kind response
1. Is it possible to tell a day old chicks gender? I need layers.
2. Is it possible to tell the gender of fertilized eggs?
3. You mentioned the recommended ration of male to female is 1:3 for maximum benefit. At what stage shall you introduce the male to the females for fertilization?
Thanks & rgds
Henry u can find all u need to know on internet. Look up quail batteries or cages. 1/5 ratio on birds male/female
Some people use vent checking system for determining the chicks gender. But we don’t know how to tell the gender of fertilized eggs. For better breeding result introduce the males after 8 to 10 weeks. Thanks!

What does that mean? Do you want to mean, when the quails become suitable for laying eggs or for selling? Usually quails start laying eggs within their 6 to 7 weeks of age. Thank you!
