➡ Quail Hatch Along🥚

[CoturnixComplex]

Yes I’m building an assorted flock! I’ve been looking at the sex-link for a while now just so I’ll know from day 1 how many girls hatch! If my girls ever start laying, I may separate some fo my favorite colors for breeding

Are their roux dilutes sold as autosexing eggs? If both parents are roux all the babies will be too and that's not actually that helpful for sexing.

Oh, wow, I didn't know anyone had discovered sex link quail. Is this confirmed?

Yes. Roux dilute/"Egyptian", recessive x-linked.

I typed it as pharoah accidentally at first, which is why I think it's a dumbass name for them and only myshire uses it and I refuse >.>

Their sex-link are egyptian (roux-dilute??) male over Pharoah females to produce pharoah male and Egyptian female chicks. I think that’s how it goes.....

That wouldn't work :/ but I'm sure they've got a cross worked out.

It's gotta be roux female x pharoah male

Male offspring always would show it, females would all be carriers.

I just found out my blue Italian must be a carrier, she threw a roux hen with my roux male

Or something.
Sex links hurt my brain. Ignore me, I evidently need my coffee, I'm sure they've worked it out

I put the box in, and they were quick to check it out.

I annoyed them by opening the box repeatedly to take photos. The pictures were blurry though.
