¿Celadon?

I’ve been gone for a few weeks on a business trip. Came back to being told and seeing 3 new quail in the pen. But…
I have Coturnix, but the 3 hatchlings are different in color. White, yellow stripes, beige. Not like the the normal colors of past coturnix quail. Are these recessive gene celadon? Interesting how it “just” happened.
Photo of one with what my adults look like.

Celadon lay blue eggs, no relation to feather color, those are coturnix, just a fun color, Italian perhaps on the big one and English white on the little one? I’m still trying to figure out the color thing, it makes algebra seem straightforward!

These are all coturnix. If they are celadon, you won't know until they start laying because celadons lay the pale blue eggs. They can come in any colour.

I have labeled these three different coloured ones.

So if I don’t have any silver and the other color types reproduce, they can produce a silver…hummm. Interesante!
