where are you?? i got my button quail eggs from purely poultry and had very good hatches overall....I ordered 12 and received 20. Nabiki got hers from a local source and had good luck as well.

My two pairs just started laying this week. I'm getting two eggs a day. Guess I was right about two hens and two roos.

That sounds good.
That's what I'd call him.

We've finally managed to get all the way to a color and it's lavender

No...I don't think I'd call him lavender.

I had one a while back that was huge. It was a double yolk. If it's over 16 or 17 grams, it's most likely a double yolk.View attachment 2056258

I will weigh them and see!

Reminds me of the Cameo Peafowl...

FYI: this pic is from the LeggsPeafowl photogallery. To give them credit for the pic.

That's what they've decided to call the color, I guess. It's wildtype aka pharoah with lavender dilution. So they call it lavender.

Doesn't look like lavender in chickens but hey, neither does lavender in ducks, lol.
