Yeah, it is basically slight color variations of the yellow gene in the Manchurian. lol

I could reproduce the picture on this journal haha as I just hatched out a bunch of coturnix including the Manchurians and I have three Manchurians with the shades of yellow like on that page. Let's see what they look like when they get their adult feathers in.

Mine are a lot lighter then the pics in the journal they look like little mini barred rocks but when they get older their color comes in a little darker
