shelleyd2008 Your buttons are hatching !!!

That is awesome!! You're a natural apparently!

You know, I'm really surprised that you don't have any silver/slate/ivories? One of my pens is almost completely silver looking birds! There are 6, 4 males and 2 females, then a cinnamon pearl hen and a wild male. That's where the white would have come from, but evidently the other eggs from that pen got the 'off' colors! That's pretty neat!

I found Garrie Landrys button quail chick color page
http://www.zebrafinch.com/NewButtonquail/Quail_Chicks.html
and *think* I may have a silver when I compare chicks to his photos. My photography isn't the best and the colors are different in real life.
Regardless, they are awesome and we'll know the colors for sure in a few weeks

Shelly your buttons are takeing over

. Yeah I was very surprised by all the colors I think I have one white and then I have so many other colors its crazy, only like 3 or 4 will be wild color I think the rest are a rainbow.

We can all blame it on Mrs. AK....she's the grandma to my birds

Except for my one blueface male, that credit goes to marie_martin

After I posted about you not having silvers I went and looked at the pics again. I was thinking you must have added new pics, cause there was some I didn't notice before!! But it looks like you do have a few, the ones that are all red looking are cinnamon blueface

It is a really nice mix of babies!
I see some golden pearls to they are so pretty if they are from my eggs I will lay odds on them being curly all my golden pearls are curly and I am looking at the little ones I have and I see feathers starting to stand up

Shelley I think with all the darling cinnamons your eggs throw I may have to get some I love cinnamon colors in all the mutations!

It would be a while for a lot of cinnamons, the blueface cinnamon pen is broody right now

I have 3 girls and 5 boys in that pen, and 2 of the hens are fighting over the nest......But I can let you know when they are laying again, I just hope they don't quit setting on the eggs!!

here's hoping you have great moms and a good hatch!
