Here are my chicks

I think 1,3,4,6,7 are roosters. 2, could you post a better pick, it’s a bit squirmy and I can’t see the whole chest. 5 and 8 could be hens, but could still lose their spots and end up being male. I’m not an expert though.

They look like 2 regular pharaohs and an Egyptian.

I just had my first hatch today, too! We bred them specifically to get color variations, so ours are all over the map

So cute! I love the little Italians.

We have an Italian roo who is stunning, but an a-hole (he got loose this morning and we had to chase him around the block, my other roo and birds generally hang out and wait to be picked up.) This hatch was in part to preserve his pretty genetics...lol. Looks like we might have a couple tuxedos from our tuxedo hen, too...gonna be quite the mix!

They look like 2 regular pharaohs and an Egyptian.

what is the difference between the two?

 

[Dan Clark]

The pharaohs are the regular wild type normal color quail. The Egyptians are a lighter color but same pattern.

so it’s just the feathercoloring same temperament?

Does this one look like your lighter one? I am pretty sure this is the progeny of my tuxedo, who is white and Rosetta. Photo is a little dark...

The light chick will look like the chick below to the far left, as well as the one on the right standing next to and looking at the cinder block.

the front left tuxedo is regular pharaoh+tux, back row, from left, 2 and 3 are regular pharaohs that is what the dark ones will look like.
