I am sure this has been answered before I just cannot find it. I know there are people from Louisiana here that might be able to answer this question. I plan on raising quail for egg production and meat. I will be using two varieties of courtnix quail for this purpose. I do plan on trying to get with local markets, sell at farmers market, and sell from my home.
The product list I am planning on selling within the next year is:
1. Eggs for consumption
2. Hatching eggs
3. Live birds
4. Processed birds
I have seen that for quail the Louisiana wildlife site says I need a permit and a permit from the federal government. However the federal government states I only need a permit if the bird is on the Migratory bird treaty act. The Louisiana department of wildlife states only domestic birds need a permit. And the Poultry and egg information I have found only specifies chicken eggs. I am looking for regulations in Louisiana, Calcasieu parish to be exact.
Oh and I called the department of wildlife and fisheries here in Lake Charles and they were confounded by this question.
Thank you very much.
