I thought calis. But head too bronze

Then the one I thought was a hen is a cock but what type?? Cross breed??

I'll add my breeding pair of cali to photobucket tomorrow I'm worried my hen isn't a Cali now

gambles?

 

[FeatheredObsessions]

They look like Valley to me. Male seems to have scaling that Gambels don't. They are very young and the female is going to change a lot for her colors.

Now I've uploaded more pics. I'll explain lolol

Pic 1/30 Is my female I purchased for £10 back in October ish to breed this summer as a Californian quail hen. She is now today in photos 11 12 13
Here was my confusion I brought. 27 29 /30. Thinking it was a female hen, hence the resemblance!

My original male is no 8/30. Notice the black tiny bit brown head

I thought I'd be kind and buy him a new girlfriend and try a trio. And got no 10/30. A female Cali. But when I compare mine and this they not alike!!

Ok so if your still with me the pair I thought I brought came with a male who they think is not even a Cali it's a gambel as his head is all brown nO 15 16 17 19 24. Lol. Underneath shots furthest bird

And the male or hen is the odd bod 27 29

So I need to know who to pair with who?
Sort male and females
I need a good Cali pair to breed and sell eggs at auction. I'm guessing this is no 10 and 8

Is my 11 a Cali?
And what is this odd bird a young bird will it grow into a 8 lol as it's a 2010.


Lololololol well your brave if you understand all that I'd keep photobucket open lolol
