I grew up on a farm with chickens & a few years ago I had Ameraucana chickens but got some Button Quail along the way & they became my preference

I am a gardener and planted my 8' x 16' enclosure with plants the buttons could eat they seam very happy and hatch their own chicks under the plants. Over the past 5 years I have managed to acquire 6 Tuxedo Buttons I do not know of they are male or female so I recently put them all in the same enclosure. no one has given me an egg yet my question is if both mom & dad are Tuxedo will all of the chicks be Tuxedo?

Hi and welcome to BYC. Maybe ask your question here - Quail. Chat with other BYC members nearby using the links in my signature, below (turn your phone to landscape to see them).

Make yourself at home and enjoy the forums.

Best wishes
