Is the a male or hen quail

[JaimeM831]

I'm not sure either....does it crow? I'm leaning towards male, though!

I just notice right now it tried to mate with my hen but I always taught it was a hen since my male quail would always trie to mate with it everyday

Yes it crows but it crow is different from the wry neck one. I believe someone told me that hen crow as well but slightly different it only started about this month and I got this quail in June a guy sold me 2 telling me they were hen but one kept crowing so I returned it and got a new one then the new one started crowing and I was about to return it but it flew away to the forest my guess is he did not trim its wing. both tried to mate with my hen right away and finally this one when I got it did not crow and my quail would alway try to mate with it when there was a hen around and never mate with the hen only this one
Video is the one that I returned and believed was male

The person who told you that was a female doesn't know what they are talking about. Be careful buying from them again.

That's a male.

Whoever told you that hens crow was... wrong. I've never heard a hen crow.

Don't want to sound like a 'scratched record', so I won't reiterate what @Nabiki and @Kiki have said, ....also I wouldn't buy from that seller again, either they 'truely' don't know or are not a responsible seller.

The mounting isn't a proper sign of gender, I have a female that humps other birds (and mini squishmallows) to assert dominance. She would hump a male if she had the chance.

I agree.

I also had a female quail that did a half crow when she was younger, she doesn't do it any more.
She did the end bit, but not the other sound at the start. It definitely wasn't the scream they do when they are scared.

I got a question most people are saying that it’s a male is there something I should do about it since right it not aggressive to the other male but not sure about later on when it get older because I heard males can’t be together.

How many quail total do you have?
Are you keeping them all together in this bird cage?

It depends on how many you have and how much room they have.
