    Are some of these eggs Celadon?

    Aka: how blue does a blue egg need to be before its Celadon?! 😅 I bought these off EBay, from a woman who keeps I believe it was around 100 birds, mostly Pearls (though it says she has some pharaoh, Italian, and pansy fee)… I didn’t pay Celadon prices, nor were blue eggs mentioned anywhere but...

    Has anyone on here tried breeding Coturnix Quail for new egg colors?

    Silver Homestead is blog I read and she (he?) is doing an experiment on breeding Speckled Blue eggs and says people are trying to breed robin looking eggs. Has anyone on here done their own egg color breeding?

    Brown cheek, just a coincidence?

    Hi! I have this gray coturnix male, 4 weeks now, with brown cheek just as the feather sexable types. The father is white, and mother cinnamon tuxedo (not feather sexable). Do you think it is just a coincidence he looks like a feather sexable bird? It would be great to breed him to maintain this...

    It's official! I have a broody coturnix quail!!!! :D

    My buff (pastel/dilute, I was told) celadon (she has blue eggs) coturnix quail hen has gone broody, and I don't think it's genetics. Let me give my theory of how this happened: 1. There were only 3 quails in the hutch (1 male and 2 females), and I had two quails pair bond. How do I know they...

    what is the deepest color celedon eggs come in?

    I went to a legit flea market last week and one of the sellers had parrots and quail eggs some of them being navy blue to royal purple. This confused me because I thought that celadon eggs were more of a light blue/teal type of deal. So I was wondering what is the darkest celadon egg you have...

    Celadon questions and integration questions!

    Just a couple of quick questions, more out of curiosity than anything. I have noticed that my celadon babies are growing at a much slower rate than my non-Celadon quail did. They eat less, drink less, and are smaller. I'm wondering if this is going to make it hard to integrate them with my...

    Celadon coturnix quail cries after laying an egg

    Hello -- I own three celadon coturnix quail (two males, one female) as pets. All of them are three and a half months old and are separated to prevent biting. The female began laying around mid-December. She lays one egg everyday aside from occasionally skipped days. However, she makes a cry-call...

    Breeding for celadon gene

    I got my start with quail last spring. Ordered 12 hatching eggs, toddler broke 1, 6 hatched, 4 lived. A lot of tragic beginner mistakes. However the eggs I ordered had some blue eggs mixed in and I had one celadon hen. That hen wedged herself behind something, got stuck, and died. Another hard...

    Mixing Quail Breeds

    What color egg and type bird will you hatch if you mix a coturnix and a celadon? I have coturnix quail now and thinking of adding celadon to our flock but wasn't sure what we would get if they mix breed.
