    I used to get my quails straight from UCD Poultry Research Facility because I interned there in the past. The manager would give me the extra breeding birds that they euthanized due to injury(i.e. broken wing/leg) or year old birds past their laying prime, otherwise they would be sent off to pet food rendering.

    I know SF and Oakland Chinatown has markets that sell live quail and other poultry for a relatively good price in comparison to a professional breeder. They're intended to be butchered on the spot after sale, but I'm sure you can buy them live or at least freshly killed whole.

    I'll talk to Concord or Alamo Feed. Thanks for the tip.

    I'd be filing a partial reversal regardless of what happens for the full price of shipping, personally. Assuming they arrive in a still usable manner.
