Hello! and welcome to the OEGB thread.

They're the seamless ones. Really oily. There's no way that caused it. Its just me rambling. I'll washed the legs twice today and I'll do them again in the morning.

Updated pics of my quail pair. Do they look anywhere close to the standard? What needs to be improved? The hen doesn't actually have little white specs on her head; that's just the camera on my cell phone being weird.

The cock could use a little more black in the hackles and saddle, but overall a pretty nice pair of quail.

I believe quill to be e+ Pg Db?

I recently got my hand on what I believe is a Laced silver duckwing game hen.

I wonder that if I cross her to a E^R Db roo I could end up with something close to below birds(I have not seen this phenotype on OEGs or Game birds yet)

Quail, not quill

I really like a good quill pattern, but good ones in oegb are virtually nonexistent. There is a local breeder here that is working on red quill oegb, and doing pretty good. Love the pattern on those last birds posted, but I really like the lemon pencilled fresians

Thanks for the input! I was wondering about the black. I'd noticed that in the pics of quail birds on the OEGB club site, the roosters tended to have much more black in the hackles than mine. Is it possible that any cockerels I hatch from them could have more black, or is it more likely that they'll all inherit my cockerel's lighter hackle and saddle color?

@nicalandia, the names are very similar, but mine are quail, not quill.

It is a gorgeous color, ideal offers something like it but no idea on their quality. Is that silver on those birds? So attractive til it sun yellows.
