I have 10 young Coturnix, 3 of which are Roos; all identified through vent sexing. Two of the Roos tell us very loud and often that they are dudes - they LOVE to stand on their tiptoes and crow to the heavens. But the third roo hasn’t crowed once, he’s as quiet as a mouse. I questioned whether we’d done the ID right, so double checked his vent and he definitely looks male. He’s also got the solid rusty brown chest colour. Do some roosters just not crow? Is he a roo that identifies as a hen? Is he confused???
