Coturnix Quails, also known as Japanese Quails or Jumbo Brown Quails, are a type of small game bird that are native to Asia but have been introduced to many other parts of the world. They are popular for their meat, eggs, and as a model organism for scientific research.
Coturnix Quails are small birds that grow to an adult size of about 20-25 cm and are easily distinguishable by their short, round bodies and short, stubby tails. They come in a variety of colors, including brown, grey, and black, and they have a distinctive call that sounds like "cot-cot-cot."
Coturnix Quails are highly adaptable birds that are able to survive in a wide range of environments, including both urban and rural areas. They are fast-growing and have a short lifespan, typically living for only 1-2 years.
Coturnix Quails are popular for their meat, which is tender and flavorful, as well as for their eggs, which are larger than those of most other quail species and are often used for cooking. In addition, they are often kept as pets and used as a model organism for scientific research, particularly in the fields of genetics and developmental biology.
