Frequently Asked Questions

Is Eating Quail Effective For Weight Loss?

Some experts would suggest eating quail instead of chicken when planning on losing weight because the nutrients are compact within the quail. For instance, eating quail would give you thrice the amount of vitamin C you’ll get from eating chicken. Another reason is that although the quail is packed with food qualities, it also contains fewer calories.

How Do I Know If the Quail I Bought Is Fresh?

Carefully examine the flesh of the quail you’re going to buy. You want your quail to be looking creamy with a slight tinge of yellow and pink. Avoid the obvious red flags such as foul smell and flesh that looks awfully dry.
