Chinese Blue Breasted Quail (Button Quail) Color Varieties

[Bryam]

Yes, button quail can throw all different coloured babies. The difference between the blue breasted and red breasted is red on the breast.

 

[Guineagang]

Hmm... from what I've read and seen blue breasted and normal read breasted are the same thing. Dont they just fit into the same normal wild coloring?

 

[Bryam]

No, red breasted wilds actually have a red breast, as the normal wilds have a blue breast with no red.

Do You sell them

 

[ChickenLife]

I just bought a pair from a pet store in Grover Beach CA. $30.00 each @ a dicount 10% so $25.00 each
The other pet store there had some whites and pieds. I got blue faced red breasted pair. So Pismo Beach area has button quail.
Northern Califorina dosen't have any birds. 35 years ago had lots of them around.
I will let my pair have babies and then sell them.

If you’re still looking, I hatch button quail regularly and have all sorts of colors.
