Button quail

[Winter08]

Can someone help identify their colors? Also they seem to be a little aggressive towards each other like pecking at face, should they be separated? If it helps they hatched yesterday.

I'm totally guessing at this point since they're so young, but it looks like a cinnamon, a white/grey, and a wild type tuxedo.

Give them a couple of days to settle down. They peck at everything when they first hatch.

I also had this one hatch out and found it’s colors interesting. What color variation is it?

That one's gonna have some cinnamon in it, maybe even smokey? Do you have any side photos or pics of the belly?

I’m agreeing there’s cinnamon in there. I’m thinking that the dark head and shoulders, fading toward the back, is a sign of red breasted. I’m not sure if a button can be red breasted carrying wild. I’m not as good at buttons as I am at Coturnix, but in cots you can have wild pattern bleeding thru several of the other incompletely dominant patterns. This sort of looks like cinnamon with wild bleeding thru red breasted.

They’re not too clear

The guys from the original picture looks to be a darthvader (the one with a black face), a white (the yellow one) and I can't see the last guy clearly enough. More pics of the greyish chick?

That one seems like a cinnamon. I don’t have another chick picture like that one as it started growing in its feathers.

The big one is definitely cinnamon. The one in the bottom left... Personally bewildered. Tell us what it looks like when it is full feathered please!
