“The quail from Stillwater Quail are not a byproduct; they’re raised by falconers for falconers. They’re clean, they’re consistent, and they’re raised on a diet formulated to keep hawks healthy. I have fed John’s birds exclusively to the anatum peregrines in my own breeding project, and have never raised nicer young.”

“Birds are high-octane biological engines, and a fully balanced diet is required for them to realize their potential. Undernutrition lowers the energy available for physical exertion, reduces the reproductive process and can suppress the immune system. The superior quail provided by Stillwater Quail satisfy all nutritional needs and give our birds the advantage – better power reserves in the field for a falconer or additional healthy chicks for a breeder.”

“I've been breeding falcons for many years and have used quail from lots of different quail breeders. I can tell you that Stillwater Quail are the best quail on the market. They are healthy robust quail, fed the best feed so their nutrition for the falcons is good. My fertility and hatchability has been excellent since I started using Stillwater Quail. Not only are they great quail, John's service is excellent. There are always good quail ready for me when I need them. Simply put, they are the best quail on the market.”

“As a Master Falconer, Licensed Raptor Educator, and Licensed Propagator, I have quite a few mouths to feed! Needless to say, I go through a lot of quail each day. The quail from Stillwater Quail are nice and plump with a great fat layer — just what I'm looking for! They always have good stock and I can't figure out how they arrive so quickly! They always come nicely packed and frozen solid. The price is right and so is the quality!”

“I’ve been a falconer and falcon breeder for over 40 years. Over the years most of us have been forced to feed all sorts of less-than-desirable things to our birds; mass-produced quail raised as restaurant meatbirds, spent egg-layer quail with no nutritional value, and soggy, smelly chickens from factory farms. There’s no longer a reason to make those mistakes — Stillwater Quail is raising the best quail that American falconers have ever been able to offer their birds. There’s no reason to feed anything else.”

“As a veterinarian and master falconer, I know our falcons can only achieve their potential by being in superb health and condition. As such, providing an excellent food source from Day 1 should be of maximum importance to every falconer and breeder. I have fed quail from multiple sources in the US over the past 25 years and can, without hesitation, state that the quail I have been purchasing from Stillwater Quail are by far the best I have ever seen. The quail are clean, robust and have excellent color in their plumage, skin and muscle tissue. For the quail to have such a healthy appearance after being frozen and shipped, I have to think that they are grown in a healthy environment with as little stress as can be achieved. I used to give supplements to my falcons and hawks to make up for the lack of nutrients found in other quail, but since feeding Stillwater Quail, I have discontinued that step and have seen healthier color and conditioning in my personal falcons and hawks. Having access to such healthy quail at an affordable price should be a principle factor in deciding where you purchase your quail, and I think everyone owes it to their falcons to feed Stillwater Quail.”
