➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[muddy75]

I remember reading about them breeding true....the Pansys are supposed to but they can be different colors, right?

Some of the others...like Pearls may not breed true, right?


Myshire says, "Pansy coloration hatching eggs! These hatch true to parents and come in a variety of hues!"

maybe my 80% was a bit low as i know they are higher than average but out of 30 eggs you had 1-2? that are not exactly pansy coloration, so that can either be due to “human error” in shipping or not 100% true breeding??

I'm going to eat the not Pearl Pansy ones.
I just want to know if my Pearl Pansys will have Pearl Pansy fakers.
They most likely will, right?

it’s a high probability, but i in no way claim to be a color genetics expert!

I really need to make time to learn this stuff.

And a weight stack. Helps me keep in shape over the winter when it's so cold that it's dangerous to exert yourself outdoors. Or, as is the case right now, just running off my extra energy before bed.

Running off your extra energy!? That makes you sound like a hamster running on an exercise wheel

She meant the dog sled thing.

Sounds a little on the nutty side.

She is nutty!

You're just now figuring this out? I am a nutter.

Look like quail to me

Well, breeds true to parents but you don’t know who the parents are, right!? So I imagine it could vary? But hopefully since they’re pearl they’ll make more pearls

DON'T TELL ME THIS MUDDY!

WTF......
Are you telling me that I split my Pansys up for no reason?
They aren't going to make little Pearl Pansy babies?

so when are we setting eggs to test my knowledge of color genetics (and if your birds read the same book??)

@Texas Kiki
#5 on 25 July I had 2 quail hatch and survive a week from lucky line
#6 on 6 September I had 29 Jumbo Quail hatch and survive a week from myshire parents
#7 hatching end of month

You're just now figuring this out? I am a nutter.

I'm a nutter, he's a nutter, she's a nutter, wouldn't you like to be a nutter too?

If you are not familiar with the "I'm a pepper" TV commercial of yesteryear,

use this tune.

At hatch the girls have very light or non existent stripes while the boys have darker stripes as a rule.

Hey, do you have a picture of that or a graphic? I am not sure I understand... where are these striped.

Sure do! *These could be other colors* could both be lav mans there was Alot of yeller in this hatch and it yeilded 6/48(?) Lav mans but this is what i mean by the males having darker stripes vs the females having very light or even non existent stripes.

*incorrect info! I screwed up im too tired tonight so sorry!* im backwards the males have next to no steipe the females have dark stripes.

 

[mixedUPturk]

I think they are the lav mans for the purplish tint but i cant be sure because they hatched from a 'unique collection' box. I have 16 now and had 18 (before 1st processing day) color varieties.
