    What color of Coturnix is this?

    Here is a reply from someone who works with quail extensively professionally and has a very detailed website on plumage genetics for quail. If you want to check it out, their website is pipsnchicks.com. Thanks for the reply.

    The fee gene should only affect the red, as you stated. Italians have pronounced black spots, and my quail doesn't.

    What color of Coturnix is this?

    The pictures I see online of Italians seem to have more of a consistent orange tone. I only see orange around the head area, so I don't think so. The quail is three weeks old, so I shouldn't get much more of a color difference in a week, if at all.

    What color of Coturnix is this?

    I am thinking white-wing pied for sure, however, there still seems to be further distinction. For example, the white pied on the southwest gamebird site is specifically a pharaoh white-wing pied. My bird isn't as dark as a pharaoh, so I was wondering if anyone has any ideas.
