Brown Coturnix Quail hatched a white chick? **picture added**

[Grey and green feathers]

I have a few white chicks with black/orange spots and their eyes do look blue and pink. Its not extremely noticeable, but if you look at them in the light, you can easily see it.

You would have to hatch thousands at a time to get an albino, but white coturnix chicks are not all that rare! there was some kind of mix up at the breeders, or they just needed one or more eggs to be sent out. It happens all the time. Especially when you order mostly brown birds!

its just a freak of nature kinda, when i went to buy my quail the lady i was buying them from had ONE white quail, she told me that they have hatched thousands of coturnix, and he was the first white one, she wouldn't sell him to me lol

bigger question is...male or female?
