shelleyd2008: I know!
Ha ha!
I think quaillady said it would probably be a female!
ChickensAreSweet: It depends on the button!
Some of them I handled more when they're "Bumble Bees" others I didn't handle much. One of the silver ones is one of the ones I handled alot when it was a baby .. she ( hopefully ) is a little more "Docile."
I'm serious though ... I figured out how to put them in a Trance!
Once you get them in that trance they will stay like that for awhile .. but most of the time they would get out of it and fly away!
It's pouring down rain here ...
... the baby quail didn't have their light on until just now!
Checked on them and they're O.K. but ... my heart kind of skipped a beat when I found out somebody had unpluged the lamp!

I agree everyone should have buttons, I do not agree that people should have them in colonies though
Sorry, just seeing many people still post eggs for sale from colonized pens...It's sad

When you colony breed, I don't think the eggs will be too fertile will they?
Alexandra, what color are the buttons in question & which one do you think is the Pied?

Your favorite one looks pied

Colors in question...hmmm...let me see....
Colors in question...hmmm...let me see....
#1 is Golden Pearl (I don't know gender yet..the bib can appear later on
if it's a boy)
#3 has pearling as well...you have to wait for the gender.
#5 is red breasted Hen
#6 are cinnamons, could be cinnamon red breasteds. Still too young for genders
Usually the easiest to sex are the Red breasted girls. Babies have a little dark rump and start getting dots in their feathers. That is what is #5
