Quail Paradise - Tall Grass/Wildflower Mix This mix provides early grazing with a cool season grass, while short statue bunch warm season grasses provide the open ground area so important for the tiny Quail chicks. And, the quail get all the cover protection and nesting material they need. This mix will stand like an oak tree during the winter blizzards. A wonderful splash of wildflowers (forbs) generates tons of insects to assure that chicks stay fat and healthy. Don’t try to buy this mix out of a consumer prairie catalog unless you’re prepared to pay several hundred dollars per acre! |
