What breeds are my quail?

[RoosterHuggerLiz]

Hello! New to quail keeping and I bought these two about 3 weeks ago, trying to figure out what breeds they are! My friend told me the larger one looks to be a Pharaoh quail and was told that the lighter colored one looks like a pearl- both the same age but the lighter one is a bit smaller and lighter if that helps

They both look like coturnix. As for colour, the first one looks like maybe grau fee while the other one looks like a pansy or pearl fee.

Fee? What dose that mean?

Fee? What dose that mean?

It's German for fairy. In quail, the fee gene removes the red so you'll end up with birds that are more black and white than brown/red.

They are both coturnix. But I think the first one is the common brown color, and the second looks like an Italian golden Coturnix.

They are not breeds, they are species! and the species is Coturnix japonica.
A more accurate description is what color variant are they?...and with that, I agree with @Nabiki

Coturnix, colors are Brown and Italian is my guess
