How old are the Coturnix roos?

 

[Bettacreek]

They were hatched out on the 8th, so 3 weeks. I'm going to get weights on them here in a jiffy. They're pretty large, IME. The goldens are larger than the browns.

Are those two hens for sale as well?

 

[Bettacreek]

Unfortunately, the two hens are all that hatched out of 20 eggs and will not be for sale. I'll also be keeping the 84g golden male. I was debating on keeping a brown roo, but I think I'll take the 25% loss from two golden genes to get larger birds. I'll eventually switch the roo out for a larger brown.
