Do i have all bachelors!!

[daviechik]

I've searched and looked and albeit feeling unsuccessful with vent sexingm.. seems as though I have all BOYS?! can someone help me? The Texas a&m I have were actually easy to vent sex and unfortunately we had many many males in that group too. I raised these in november and no eggs.... i am getting eggs from some of my other quail in a different cage though thank you!!

They need 14-16 hours of light every day to lay. The roos will also not foam or mate much without the light.

I'm leaning towards hen too, but I'm not 100% certain.

If they aren't fighting or crowing just keep them until spring or throw some extra light hours to find out for sure what sex they are.
