Got a picture with all the little guys in it:

After looking at the genetics, I'm expecting that the little ones that don't look like either Rosetta or Pharoah are some combo of Fee and Extended Brown. Not sure what color you call that, but that's what they would be, since Fee is dominant and they would have gotten that from the mother, and Extended Brown is ALSO dominant and it would have come from the father.

Fee removes red pigment. Extended brown extends the black and dark brown plumage. So this will be an interesting combo. I'm seeing a color called Charcoal that might be the comb of these two genes.

Edit: Also known as Grau Fee, apparently. I think I solved it.

Local quaileteer, not a hatchery or anything.

My button's siblings.

Are you saying that you're the victim of a button pusher?

These two are from the Tibetan cage.

The fee baby had to have come from the Falb fee mom with Tibetan dad no?

Yep So, Rosetta and Fee. Apparently Extended Brown and Fee together on a quail is Grau Fee.

I'm super glad some hatched for you.

Me too! Eight babies is not bad for 13 shipped eggs

I have got some jumbo whites hatching this Sunday. Ordered California valley eggs arriving Monday and going in the incubator late Tuesday (after resting 24 - 36 hours) and I have silvers, pansy, and more whites arriving at the end of the month.
