Now you mentioned you got these eggs in a swap and now saying Strombergs. I doubt you are getting such a good hatch with Stromberg eggs IMHO.

STROMBERGS were AT the swap
As I understood A&M WHERE 1LB Quail........white ?
Most of those that are called A&M are just english white..........even if larger
I Myself think it time to drop the name A&M, IMO
UNLESS SOMEONE CAN PRODUCE THE WHITE MEAT, 1 LB WHITE COTURNIX, Which most people say are A&M. a&m coturnix I don't think are around.. Call them Jumbo brown or Jumbo white....
Myself I think people selling quail as A&M.....are selling birds that people have these false hopes.

I myself think that many people sell the English whites as jumbos or a and ms as false advertising. I bought some of strombergs A and ms and they are in my English white pen sorry to say. I have my Texas A and M strain and it so hard to find new blood for them due to the false advertising out there.

Thats my point......With the facts out there A&M are white birds ,at 14 oz to 16 oz white meat birds.....I have to see one ,but when most people buy A&M thats what they think they are getting........reason I think the name should be drop. IMO. Unless they are white meat coturnix ??? thats what A&M are thought as........A&M ARE NOTHING BUT WHITE COTURNIX , no matter their size IMO.
Did your come from Texas University ? Thing like this link, a white meat quail ??

Well I can tell you that even the original strain I received at OSU (who got them from TAMU) there is no white meat. Lighter meat, but no white meat. I think that TAMU's wants of having white meat birds became what people thought they were, when in fact they stopped researching due to not getting white meat, sent it off and the taboo started. When one of my eldest hens died I processe
d her to find just lighter tinted compared to our Jumbo browns/pharaohs. Just larger white birds. It has merely become a name, white=Texas A and M, sad but true. When I talk about them I sometimes say Jumbo whites/texas A and Ms just so people know what size I am talking about because believe me there are some measly sized birds out there
