    I've seen them at Quality Seafood also - can't recall the price but very inexpensive and they're not always there. Last time I saw them there was a few weeks ago and I believe they were stuffed with crawfish meat. Definitely worth calling them.

      Central Market almost always has them on hand. Fresh, semi-boned.

          $4.99 per bird.

            Yeah, they're great. Texas quail - they come in four packs, but they'll open them and sell you less than 4 if you ask.

              Crazy exensive considering a quail usually weighs 6 oz
              Maybe I'll raise my own
