Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

These quail have grown so fast! They're 3 weeks yesterday and nearly as big as my adults. They might be the fastest growing quail I've ever raised honestly. Really friendly too which I'm not used to. Lol

Love all the colors :)

I got really into the coturnix because with all the new color genes that have been imported, there's a lot of genetics to play with. And since they can be laying within six weeks, the generational turn around time is fast. So they're my fun with genetics birds now, haha.

I just hatched a batch of celadons and am waiting to see if all the hens lay blue, because it's the only way to tell if the rooster is homozygous for the celadon gene. They're five weeks old now, so hopefully I'll soon see if I need to try another rooster or not.
