Quail (chick) Colors?

[CascadiaRiver]

Hello! Of the about ~30 eggs we set, we got 10 wiggly happy babies! I was really hopeful for some fun colors but honestly I'm awe-struck by the variety we got! And a little bit confused... can anyone help me figure out what we got? Of course I know it'll be much easier once they're feathered in, and I'll certainly update as they grow up! I'll post the parents first:

1 & 2 are the females: Feeobe (whiteish), Razzle (pharoah, pied).
3& 4 are the males: Gravy (grey? rosetta, pied), and Rouster (reddish)
-> I am pretty sure majority of the eggs are from Feeobe, the male both girls were with the longest was Gravy


#1. This was the first chick and is a shade white-r than the other two. She has a red eye shine/flash that the other two do not. I know for certain this one came from Feeobe!

#2 & #3. Both of these two are slightly more yellow, the younger of them has a nice big black/brown butt spot, I am expecting them to be double-pied/"A&M" type birds with a faint head spot and a butt spot or two


#4 & #5. I am assuming I have one Roux and one Pharoah? One is much darker and has heavier stripes, the other is lighter and has more faint patterning, his stripes look more dull & almost like a brown instead of black.

#6. I thought the other chicks (you'll see below) were rosetta/pied but then this guy fluffed up and was SO RED in comparison! I'm guessing this one is rosetta/pied and the others are ???

#7 & #8. I totally thought these were normal rosetta, but side by side w the other one it's an obvious difference. These guys are almost dark brown/black combo

#9. & combo pic; this baby looks almost some sort of greyish/pied?

#10. This one looks like the Fee mom when she was a baby, so I am assuming Fee?

Red eyes might be cinnamon or albino, albino tend to be more sensitive or delicate birds, both are recessive so your birds could be carriers without showing the color, my one cinnamon chick had beige stripes like an Italian. Straight yellow chicks tend to be white/silver/Blau/Andalusian homozygous birds but I have had a few that have been homozygous Italian fee and some that look like your orange and white bird but they are more beige, no idea what the gene/color is, will be interesting to see what you get. As for your brown/gray chicks I’d be suspicious about heterozygous silver/Blau, not sure which of your birds is throwing it though (orange and white). The overall red chicks are roux, base pattern is separate, and if you don’t have a roux hen, they are also girls. You can notice a nice fee effect on your yellow chicks, the medium yellow aren’t fee, the very light yellow are fee. As far as base pattern you’ve got all 3 (wild, eb, Italian), wild are brownish/tan chicks with wide black stripes and some orange/yellow highlights (color can vary with roux, silver or other modifiers), Italian are overall yellow with medium to light black striping, eb/Rosetta can be solid red (roux), black (homozygous eb), or dark red/brown with wide to medium black striping, I’ve even had a few ‘agouti’ with red and black down interspersed. They’ll begin to feather out in a week so you wait won’t be interminable. For future post you may want to use 2-3 birds per post max or it gets overwhelming and confusing. White (bellies, spots, whole bird) also is yellow at this stage, so you can have a pied pharaoh that looks like a normal pharaoh except his yellow belly.

I'm not exactly sure which birds you're talking about here other than the white one! I tried to number them to make it easier but I can split them into multiple posts here in a few minutes

And yes no roux hens, just the cockbird(s)! Unless somehow the white ish fee hen also would have roux but I assume not due to the black markings

I separated them into groups:

1-3 "white" babies

4-5 "pharaoh" babies

6-9 tuxedo babies

10 "fee" baby
