NHFG regulates quail jointly with chukar and Hungarian/European partridge under one identical season/bag line; no source distinguished bobwhite from other quail species specifically, and no NH source addressed whether birds are wild or stocked (neighboring New England states rely on pen-raised/stocked birds for this species, so likely stocked in NH as well, but not confirmed for NH specifically).
Jointly regulated with chukar and Hungarian partridge under one season/bag line, with no wild NH population confirmed by secondary sources (Project Upland, Ultimate Upland), consistent with the CT/DE/ME/NJ put-and-take pattern already documented in this registry. A fresh targeted search this pass (beyond the Tier A pass) found no NHFG-specific bobwhite population or program evidence either way -- a lower-confidence closure, flagged explicitly since no NHFG primary source addresses bobwhite specifically.
