FYI, this thread is 16 years old, and the person you're replying to hasn't been on in about that long. Most of the "curly feather" quail that you will see is the result of malnutrition. While you may find some with this mutation, it causes a malformation of the feathers that is likely uncomfortable if not outright painful for the birds.

Check your nutritional values on your feed your feeding or from the breeder you got the birds from, most likely it's a nutritional issue and not genetics.
