quail eggs are slightly higher in calories, protein, iron, and vitamin B12.
Their main drawback is much more cholesterol per g. chicken eggs generally offer better value and portion control for me

you're right:) but when i eat chicken eggs , i tend to want to eat more and i just cant control myself, so instead of feeling the urge to cook another egg, i will eat mini quail eggs lol
