Not feather sexable colors will have to be vent sexed at 5+ weeks or wait for crowing or laying

Oops didn’t see button quail part and thought coturnix. Male buttons will typically get red feathering around the vent and discernible bibbing. Others have to wait until they crow or lay. @Nabiki may be of more assistance as she’s had more colors than I have.
 
Ok so I got a lot of info and questions here, I’m an amateur. Thanks for your tips. I haven’t gotten to seeing his vent feathers since I can’t seem to get a view, but today we got our first egg and it looks like a coturnix egg? So at least one of them is female :D
Also, You told me that one was a tuxedo, which I searched up and sure enough it was exactly like the images, do you know if the brown one is a tuxedo as well or something else?
