Male or female?

Hi all!
I have 4 quail and I am having a hard time sexing this one as it’s chest isn’t solid white, but it isn’t speckled all over like the other females.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

That one looks male to me. It's getting to be the time of year where vent sexing shouldn't be too hard.

Interesting! I’d say this one is the hardest I’ve ever seen yet to sex. I appreciate your response, thank you!

My reason for the guess is the broken helmet pattern and mostly unmarked chest.
