ALL A&M'S have dark meat

Well first off A&M's aren't all of the white birds! They got the name because of Texas A&M's poultry department. They started out brown and moved to white. The all white meat is a myth. The original A&M bloodline no longer exists. After this many years don't you think new blood would have to be added from outside stock? Now people call any white coturnix a Texas A&M, I advertise mine as English Whites because that's what they are. The black spot does not determine sex don't buy into that BS, that is a throwback gene and has nothing to do with the gender. BQL have you ever processed one?

Well then how do you know how dark the meat is?

 

[BobwhiteQuailLover]

Well, I thought everyone (even you) said they had regular meat? Maybe not..

 

[Robo]

Well they have dark meat, its about like the dark meat on a chicken. The breast is about like the dark meat on a chicken and the thy's are a little darker. Not tough like some say if cooked right. I have a picture of a white next to a jumbo somewhere...

O... Ok
