    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    By the way, on September 1, 2020. My broody bobwhite hens collected, incubated, and hatched three chicks on their own. I believe two of them are Blobs, also. 🙄🤷🏻‍♂️👍🏻❤️😎

    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    Well, they are only 3 weeks old now. So, it may be a little while before they reach maturity. I don’t even know what gender they are. I’m just hoping I have at least a couple of each. But, I was thinking of attempting to breed the Blob/Blob first. Then try a male Bobwhite with a female Blob...

    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    Well, I know which hen. She is the only Blue Scale that I have left. As far as the Bobwhite roo? Haven’t had enough time to watch to even make an educated guess.

    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    So far, they tend to have the characteristics of the blue scale quail. They are super fast and jump high already. I opened the incubator and two immediately hopped out.

    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    Very interesting... Well, I guess I will find out. I thought surely someone has bred these in captivity before, right? I will try to document and photograph.

    Bobwhite male breeding with Blue Scale Female (Blob Quail)

    Ok, so, I had raised a covey of Blue scale quail and sold all except one that was badly beaten and bloodied. I had no idea it was even a female. After she recovered, I placed her in with a covey of about 60 Butler Bobwhites (male and female) and watched them closely for their reactions. To my...
