Covey

Quail lay and hatch probably fifteen to twenty eggs at a time in good years. If the conditions are perfect, ample rains, good cover, plenty of natural feed, lots of insects to feed the young, they will flurish. It has been said that everything eats quail. In a normal year it is estimated that eighty percent never make it to the next year.
