Yes, ... the first is a Tuxedo, but not much white in it. The question is on which basis?
It is no tibetan or rosetta Tux ... neither Pharaoh, Italian or Pansy Tux.
Maybe it is a grau fee, but still too dark. Should be more visible in about 2 weeks.

Edit: no. 2 and 3 are colored as @KaLe dA QuAiL said.

The other thing about coturnix quail is, there aren’t really different breeds, its really just colors and strains.
Exactly. That's why I said that the breed is coturnix. There are King (button) quail, bobwhites, coturnix, California quail, etc. Those are breeds, and they don't cross with each other.
 
If you want to be technical, they're not actually breeds. The species is japanese quail and coturnix is a genus of six species of old world quail (including japanese quails).

Sorry, I'm a little obsessed with taxonomy :)
haha ya and thats why i said i new at this
