I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of “Ivory” button quail and was willing to post pictures?
I can’t seem to find any pictures online of this “Ivory” colour in an adult.
I have included pictures of a young one I am assuming is Ivory since it is buff in colour and developing full orange colour on his bum.

Here's a few photos of mine:

And here's what my Ivory ones look like as adults. I think there can be quite a variation in colour as mine is influenced by the Caramel colour:

Wow beautiful Ivory!
I’ve never seen an adult and blowin away I hatched one
(Shipped eggs of course not from my buttons)

Once he’s more mature I’ll post more pictures.

I’m wondering what would be a best mate for this guy if I have no other Ivory.
Cinnamon splash maybe
 
Unless the one you pair it with is carrying ivory, is a cinnamon split to silver (or you have a silver split to cinnamon) you won't get ivory chicks. I've only ended up with females, though mine are all related anyway. If you want more ivory birds you can pair it with any colour then do a son/mother or daughter/father pairing.

The breeder I got our original pair off (a caramel and a silver) has the Ivory birds and his are whiter than mine. Mine seem to have a gingery wash through them. I love buttons and their crazy genetics!

I'll look forward to seeing how your baby turns out.
 
The Ivory hen (who I named Ivory)
Is now a broody hen.
Fingers crossed for her to be a mommy. It would be nice because she is truly a sweet hen <3
