I’ve got 18 Jumbo Egyptian Coturnix Quail. They’re about 3-4 weeks old. Trying to feather sex them all and this one is difficult for me. Chest is bare like a male but spotted around the sides. This is the only one that looks darker or black almost. I’m assuming it’s still the same breed. This is...

Thanks for the article. I've got a 15-week-old cockerel that is starting to show his dominance over a young flock. There has been zero aggression towards me or my family. Should I expect this to change once he fully matures, or is it possible to have friendly roosters without any training/work...

Looking back on the entire situation, idk what I learned. No idea what was...
