What color is this Coturnix?

[FenDruadin]

I'd call that color "Beautiful." Wish I had some--very nice!

I have quite hatched a few of these and did not know that they looked like this until a buyer came back to me to find out what the color was. Since then I have beens trying to find out more about them. All I found were syble's photos on another forum. They are my personal favourite mutation though.

What color is it?

We call them golden exotics, but i've yet to find an actual morph that matches. if it is the same as my birds (which are the ones pictured), they have 1 very big difference from wild (and speckled golden) patterns, they cannot be sexed by spotted feathers on the breast. females have a clear breast like males, though i'm noticing a bit of difference in the throat markings.

Ok cool. So we have Manchurian, Italian, Autumn amber, Red head, and Golden Exotics so far in the golds! Awesome!

You're gonna have to do some expanding of your color directory lol

 

[Stellar]

Indeed!

syble, do you just have the one bird in the photo, or do you have others as well?

I had 8 or 10 but thanks to some lazy kittens i'm down to 2 or 4 now... with some more in the incubator...
