I am going to be getting adult quail soon. They are going to be straight-run and I was wondering how to tell gender aside from egg laying. Pictures showing gender would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Here is a link to a thread that has "how to" tell the sex. Some are easy to determine by their color. Bobwhites are easy to determine by the coloration of the mask. Texas A&Ms are the most difficult as they are all white and have no coloration that easily determines males from females.
What type of quail will you be getting?
