Tim fairly well known for his d'anver too. A lot of my stock came from Tom Shephard, one of Tims buddies up there, and he did get me quite a few from Tim as well. What I got were all good birds. So they should be from some fairly nice stock.KristenR, Wow! Thank you for a very detailed review!!! Your in depth details will help when evaluating the other d'Anvers we have and will be getting. I have read through the Standard a few times, but a lot of it I didn't really understand. Your information helps with that.
We got these birds from another 4-H family whose daughter showed them, but they didn't want to keep them around. They have a trio of Quail d'Anver that my son will probably be getting as soon as we make space for them.
Their d'Anvers came from Tim Bowles from Lucasville, OH. I'm not sure where he got his stock or how long he has been breeding them. He is an APA judge and from what I have found is better known for his work with standard size breeds.
Thanks again!

The parents of dw looking chicks are silver split quail male who is evidently split for lav also. and the lav quail looking pullet which came from a porcelain roo and a lavender hen.
I want on the red list when you're ready to let some go.
What I have hatched and what is in the bator Is all of these I will have.,Rooster died today (Friday). He was fine this morning, when I got back from the fair ground at noon, he was dead. Heart attack I guess
I have to say that so far we love our two girls. I keep our sliding door open when they are outside in the backyard and today they came in to find us in the livingroom. One flew up and perched in front of the tv and the other claimed OH's recliner.When we took them back outside they didn't make a fuss and they love following the kids around the yard. So far, this may be my favourite breed. Lovely, lovely birds.
By the way, all 5 chicks are most definitely pullets. Guess it was time for the tide to turn my way for a change. I'm keeping two of them and selling the other three, I think.
JJ, sorry about your rooster!
