3 week old Quail

Males don’t have this pattern on their chest.

Ok! Thanks

I've got another who is now three weeks that I think is a female
I'll take pictures when I get home

It could be a mongrel that just got the grau fee colouring. It's certainly not a pharaoh.

Wow... Ok
Do I try vent sexing or should I just go off the fact it's bigger for now and wait to see if it lays eggs? I don't really care if it's a male or female because I just keep it as a pet.

Up to you. Since you're down under, vent sexing may not be as reliable since it's winter. I would wait until it starts to crow or lay.
