Good morning (or whatever time it is where you are ^^)

I wanted to ask about this chicks colour. It's still only young so it might change a bit yet, but I think it looks like it might turn out quite nice.

It's one of my first button quail chicks to hatch out from incubation.

Those are some interesting colors! I might be a little rusty in color identification of colors I don't have, but I'll give it a try:
1st post - I think it's a cinnamon, probably female, white winged.
2nd post:
#1 Cinnamon (cinnamon blue face, perhaps - it seems very dark for its age), probably male, white winged
#2, #9, #11 Blueface white winged
#3, #5, #6 Cinnamon white winged
#4, #7, #8, #10 Blueface
 
Thank you for the reply!

How long does it generally take for them to get their adult feathers through?
 
The females are usually their adult color after 3-5 weeks, the males tend to take a bit longer and I even have a male who was still changing his color when he was more than a year old - but usually they are done by 5-8 weeks.
