What is this breed pls

[Owntalin]

So if some of you remember, we posted these cortinex eggs... English whites. I said the orange circled one was different. So we had a great hatch of 5....the weird egg hatched and it was this little beauty!!! The others are yellow, with a touch of brown here and there.. Now turning white. So what is this one?

That is a Coturnix quail. It's hard to say the colour for certain with the light, but it looks like a silver or Italian variant to me.

Breed is coturnix color is Egyptian

 

[muddy75]

Unlike your English whites, this one should be feather sexable at 3-4 weeks age

@muddy75 definitely knows the colours better than I do.

I can't tell for sure from the picture, but if it's a solid(ish) blue egg, it's a celadon coturnix. Same breed, but the mother had two recessive genes for blue egg color.

If that's a patch of red on the chest and not a shadow - looks like a boy.
