    Roux Dilute/Egyptian Coturnix Quail Discussion Thread

    It's okay! I just took a vacation, got busy with chores and holidays, came back to 800 notifications, and now it's taken me a while to get up to sorting through them :th

    They're really nice kiki. :love I would keep the blue thing in particular. My guess is that it's female. It will be if it fits the pattern. I thought I finally found an exception (a silver female) but it crowed the other day. I will ask Robbie weigh in on that in the upcoming blue/silver thread too!

    These are either german pastel or roux types but they're kinda in the middle so :confused: to you too. German pastels don't tend to have chest patterning I don't think. I only had one and he was a tuxedo so I couldn't tell. But if they do they are probably more roux, and if they don't I would...

    One of the weird ones, yes! Type 1 is more like the reddish ones in my pics in the first post, Type 2 are these strange silvery ones. :woot Thank you so much! This is super super helpful stuff. I love that study. I only wish there were more pictures of each. It's still better than most, but I...

    Except :eek: She turned way red in the sun! She was silver/tan when I gave her to you I swear lol. Now I really REALLY think they're the same.

    Now muddy says she was nuts when she said that but I still think there's a 40% chance she was subconsciously on to something. I had one pair that was silver[confirmed roux carrier] x Italian that produced some. I had another one that was silver-diluted Italian x roux produce some. It either...

    I totally do want more pics of him :ya But I think the two silver-type females he came with are this gene, specifically, while he's a more traditional silver (I should make their page next!). I also might still have good pics of the girls.

    Roux Dilute/Egyptian Coturnix Quail Discussion Thread

    I have no idea on this one either. Could be a lav man, could be a (literal or metaphorical) dirty snowie, could be a silver-diluted golden type. The exact shade changes more than you'd expect with the fancies between 3 wks and 6 wks so you can probably clear this up by then. Grab-bags are...

    I actually still have no idea on that lacier-looking darker type. It's like a perfect hybrid of lavender, silver/blue, pharaoh/falb-fee (that red mantle!), golden, rosetta, and pansy O.o Which of those it actually genetically carries is anyone's guess. I guess it *could* be a female...

    The one on the right in this pic. The one on the left I think is more standard silver/blue based. My blues always have that sort of dark pigment around the legs, beaks, and eyes.

    This one I legit have no idea on. It could be half a million things genetically This one! Yes.

    Oh, @James Marie can probably confirm or deny this in a wink if he feels like chiming in during some of his (extremely spare) downtime :D But I also like puzzles.

    Calling all silver pharoah/tan silver/feather-sexable silver owners! @Texas Kiki @Sara L @el dorado quail @Nabiki and maybe also @muddy75 and @mixedUPturk ? Apparently, there's a good chance this is the same gene as roux dilute. What I need from anyone willing to contribute: 1. Pics! Post...

    Main Color Directory This is a real fun one, and one of the few known sex-link genes in coturnix. Since females control gender in birds, and have only one Z gene, they only need one copy of the "roux" gene to express the coloration, whereas males, who have two Z genes, need two - one from each...
