The California Valley Quail (Callipepla californica) is one of the most iconic and cherished species in the game bird world. Native to the chaparral, sagebrush, and oak woodlands of California and the Pacific Northwest, they have long captivated naturalists and aviculturists with their distinctive topknot plumes, vibrant gray-blue plumage, and lively social behaviors. Historically admired for their charming appearance and unique foraging habits, California Valley Quail are considered a symbol of prestige among collectors, breeders, and hobbyists.
Owning a true breeding pair is a mark of dedication to both the preservation of this iconic species and the advancement of aviculture as a discipline. Each pair represents not only the opportunity to participate in the propagation of one of the West’s most beloved quails but also the pride of owning a living piece of natural history.
At The Walker Preserve, our quails descend from carefully selected lineages that emphasize diversity, vigor, and resilience.
