    Help pls with colour/feather sexing

    Hi, please could someone more experienced tell me whether this quail can be feather sexed, its light with pale chest, I know it’s a little early yet but I can see the difference in the italian types and browns already. The male is Italian and the hens were Rosetta and one which is white and...

    Double checking make/female would hate to get it wrong

    Hi, please can someone tell me if I’m correct in thinking the two at the front of the second photo are males and the two in the other photo are females? Another photo of the one I think is male and one I hope is female. I need to spend some more time observing the rosettas I’ve seen one...

    First time hatching, advice pls on which type they are?

    Thanks so much, I’ll be looking carefully at their colours, I think I can see 2 males one Pearl and the Italian and the grey one is definitely as he’s started crowing and I’ve seen him mounting one of the others and I can see some missing feathers on some of their heads so think he must be doing...

    First time hatching, advice pls on which type they are?

    Thank you so much thats really helpful, it did say mix of regular and lights which didn’t mean much to me. There are two of the pearls and I’m thinking one looks like a hen and the Italian looks male the others its a bit early for me to tell. The third photo autumn amber? is really friendly...

    How exciting, I'm quite tempted to hatch again but don't know if I've got room for many more babies. My two pullets I hatched last year have just started laying, one today for the first time. The one on the right is Phylis' first egg the other three and from the same hen, her first three eggs...

    Thanks, haven't cracked them yet to see, she's a cream legbar x french copper marans, I bought the eggs as can't have a cockerel but she hatched from darkish eggs. The other eggs are from sussex and French Copper Black Marans my others are still not back in lay. Her sister hasn't started...

    Lovely eggs I'm hoping my two olives will lay some as beautiful, one has nice red headgear so I'm hopeful for an egg soon :)

    That's great, thanks. There is another similar one which looks like a pullet too and at hatch it looked like a bluish extended black copper black chick but it had dodgy legs and I nearly culled it but kept strapping them and now its fine I'm so glad i persevered!

    Thanks Peep_Show, probably not but I wanted a second opinion I've only hatched once before and that was just before this one and then there were 4/5 males so I've not got much pullet experience! Male 1 had a large red comb almost from day 1, I think when these have gone more may suddenly develop...

    I hatched some olive egger eggs and these are some of the chicks they are 5/6 weeks old and their crests are growing now and quite cute, I'm hoping the two front ones may be girls :). The one at the back had a large comb from early on!

    Thanks Ron, its quite complex. I can't have roosters so didn't do the cross myself just going on what the ad said (pullets dark, males light) so the legbar rooster over copper black hens means the head spots could be either so I'll keep my fingers crossed as I was really looking forward to an...
