The chick on the left is significantly lighter than the right one. The right one will be a pharaoh.

Daddy is a a+m and mamma is a jumbo pharaoh but possibility of white recessive.

Thanks!

Looks a lot like an Italian or maybe Manchurian (sp?) gold. But I'm no expert on quail genetics so I don't know if that's possible.
I have some Itailans. Here's a picture of one of mine as a chick.

Here is an adult male.

Aw, with his doggie buddy. How cute. Yeah some had bigger/wider strips than others. That's the best close-up I have but here's a group shot. You can see they are all a bit different. This is right out of the incubator.

I do know that pharaoh colors breed with Italians will produces both colors. Also, I got my first quail from a local backyard breeder. His quail also produced A&Ms but I know he only had male A&Ms at that time. So there's that, for whatever it's worrh.
