Not to rain on your parade or anything, but, if a female has been recently bred, she may also foam due to still having the foam from the male... so, put all of the "males" in a pen for a few days and make sure no eggs show up in there...

That would be fine if she could tell which ones were males to begin with. Their A&M quail (no Aggie jokes, please)

Ah, I would use the bator to hatch chicks with and to sell them. Unfortunately I don't have one.

If you aren't getting any eggs and no mating behavior it is likely they aren't going to foam either. It's not normal breeding season for quail right now (in the Northern Hemisphere). You may want to check just a couple to see before you get your whole set-up ready.

I have them in Northern Florida i did check a few before i went all crazy, and nothing... and i also checked one i knew was a male and nothing.... i guess i may have to wait until they start showing signs....thanks for the heads up i will look into the seasons.

The video is correct. But only if the males are of age to produce foam. They will have a lump or a bulged vent and females will have flat vents. I've had males start producing foams as early as 5 weeks and some as late as 9 weeks old. But the quails I had were coturnix. I've had almost all breeds of quails. The game birds (bobwhites, blue scales, valleys, chukar, and others) are different and harder to sex until they get their male plumage.
