platinum and silver coturnix quails

[bfrancis]

Just can't get over how awesome those Blues looks....

...for the lower 48 folks, since we can't just go get some from our northern neighbors....what crosses do you think we would have to do to get that color mutation to show?

I hope someone figures this out.... because I want some!!

Have no idea, but if you figure it out let me know.

Those are some pretty birds.

Someone is selling these quails and he says that these are platinum quails. Are these really platinum coloured quails or are they another colour?

 

[mochicken]

That really looks more like a light red color to me, the silvers or blues that were posted earlier from Canada looked to be more of a platinum than that one

 

[TheRealTimShady]

looks like a darker Roux...he have any sort of lineage or anything to show?

 

[JulieNKC]

Do quail come in dun/khaki? That birds pretty, wouldn't mind having some of those either.

Those reds are nice, thats a colour i don't think we have in canada. I wonder what you get if you cross roux with silvers/blues. maybe thats what creates platinum.

 

[mochicken]

I'll trade you some reds for some silvers or blues lol
