Thanks, The normal Quail color I got at the local poultry swap, and I got the rest from Aubrey last May. I wish the Silver Quail comb is the same as the Lavender Cuckoo.

yep Do,
those all turned out nice, That quail looks really good too.

The lavender cuckoo does have the best comb for sure, but none are very off, the silver just needs some good spikes to him but color wise and type he sure looks good, so does the pullet. They shaped up real good for you!

yup aubrey i had a pullet with him but she got killed by some kind of predator and she looked real nice
almost had the same look ur quail hens/pullets have

I hate that... Seems around here if I loose one, it's one I eaither really needed or is rare, they never get the dime a dozen stuff

 

[lcw1995]

My experience is don't even think it. I lost a full pen of birds that were in the middle pen, to a fox. all were due to be cleaned up for a show that weekend then moved inside the best birds of that variety I had raised to date and it was breed nationals. Now th ereally good ones go straight to conditioning pens and moved out to breeder pens after eveything else is over. I even set up indoor breeder pens for select trios and quads to really keep them safe.

This is my D'anver named "Tiny" -He's a silver quail I think that or a Columbian. (Still just a baby right now but he has the correct body shape!)
