A SIMPLE SEARCH HERE WILL TELL YOU THERE ARE A COUPLE OF COLORS OF COTURNIX QUAIL THAT ARE NOT COLOR SEXABLE... CONGRADULATIONS AS YOU HAVE POSTED ALMOST ALL OF THOSE COLORS HERE

I CAN TELL YOU THE ONLY 1 YOU HAVE POSTED HERE THAT IS COLOR SEXABLE IS THE GOLDEN IN YOUR 2ND PICTURE AND SHE IS A LOVELY LIL HEN

RANGE OR TIBETAN PATERN IS NOT COLOR SEXABLE, WHITES ARE ACTUALLY A SEVERLY PIED BIRD AND SINCE THE WHITE ON THEM IS AN ABSENSE OF COLOR THEY AGAIN ARE NOT COLOR SEXABLE... SORRY.

ON THE OTHER HAND ARE YOU A DRINKER?... LOL CAUSE THE BEST WAY TO FIGURE THIS OUT FOR THESE GUYS IS WHAT WE CALL BEER SEXING... BASICALLY GRAB A BEER OR 2 AND TAKE A SEAT... THE ONES WHO CROW ARE DEFINATELY A ROO, THE ONES ON TOP ARE LIKELY ROOS, THE ONES WHO LAY EGGS ARE DEFINATELY HENS. THE ONES ON BOTTOM ARE QUESTIONABLE AS A DOMINANT ROO WILL MOUNT A LESSER RANKED ROO FOR A SHOW OF DOMINANCE

[reesepoultry]

White You can't sex except by the noise they make and the foam on there vent. A simple test I do is turn them over just slightly push there vent and if no foam comes out female. If foam comes out its a male.

Also you can sex them by the noise they make. A female will make a soft noise like a cricket. Where a male is much louder sounding. Kind of like a little rooster crow.

Also females have a lot of speckles on there chest and males are lacking speckles on the chest.

They look like all girls except the white

OK AGAINST MY BETTER JUDGEMENT I GOTTA ASK.... HOW DO YOU COME UP WITH THIS?
