somehow i always forget that's always an option with quails :^) i wouldn't be able to eat a bird that i hatched, but that's just me lol, though i have no problem giving them away for others to eat lol
I was right in your shoes not too long ago myself.
I never thought I would be able to do it either.
 
Wait how do you know she is a girl? :O Is there some secret tactic I don't know about or did you just vent sex lol
Pilgrims are an auto sexed breed. No need to vent sex or do DNA testing. The boys will be lighter, more blond and light grey while the girls will be more olive and darker overall right out of the egg. As adults, the males are white with just a touch of grey (usually on the wings) while the girls will be all grey.
Not the best pic, but here’s my older pair (~a month old) that I bought as day-olds. Boy in front :)
