Please help me identify this breed of quail

[CSKA]

Hello,

Could you please help me identify this breed of quail?

At 6/7 weeks, bigger female is at 307 grams (10.83 Ounces) and male is at 260 grams (9.17 ounches).

This was sold to me as Texas (a long way because I'm in Europe). But what I find online for Texas is all white...

This is just a curiosity.

Coturnix quail! I got some that color! But don't know what it's called. Texas a&m White is one of the many colors they come in. But your right a&ms are all white with a brown spot in back of head.

Mostly males

What weights did yours get to at 6/7 weeks? I stated over 10 above for females in the original post.

Those weights look pretty normal for standard coturnix.

Weights stated are normal to high…..what feed are you using and are treats 10% or less of diet?

I bought them a week ago, so most of the growth was done with someone else. At the moment I am giving layer feed (for quail) mixed with growth chicken feed. Also give them a side dish with cooked scrambled eggs from my chicken, collards, fruits and other stuff from the backyard (I use a blender to break things down) and make a paste, which they love.

Quail are known by their species name not by breeds.
The species is Coturnix and the color is Italian.
There are not any 'true' Texas A&M quail anymore, they have quit breeding them to the original standard, developed at Texas A&M University.
Mostly now days they will be English Whites...a variation of Coturnix, people who don't know still call them A&M's.
The birds you have are not Texas A&M's
