First the Lovage, as I abd others have posted before, use celery seed
and/or leaves in place of L. L. is a wilder member of the celery/parsley
family. It has a stronger flavor, if you don't like celery you will HATE
Lovage, OTOH......
As for quail eggs, you might contact your local poultry association and
see if there are any breeders in your area, they may be able to help
you. Also if that fails try free-range pullet or bantam eggs. Both of
these are going to be quite small, maybe a little larger than quail, but
not much!! Pullet eggs are the hens first attempt at laying, usually at
4-5 months old, after that they increase to mature size. Bantam are not
a breed really, but a size, like toy or minature dogs. They lay eggs
propotionate to their size and so if they are also free-range, they
would produce an egg similar to a natural quail. Of course if you take a
quail and raise them in a battery house with battery feed, you still
have battery eggs, just a small egg!!
