How early can you attempt to figure out the sex of quail? I'm new to this and my two are just over two weeks old

What kind of quail do you have? That plays a big part in determining the sex of the quail, as some you can tell around 3-4 weeks while others are prove a bit more difficult.

I was able to sex my jumbo browns at about that age. At 3-4 weeks it will be much more obvious.

Really can't tell anything until they have most of their adult feathers.
