I can’t find it but someone made an older thread about it that’s really helpful. But any roux colored male bird over a non roux female will produce sex links in Quail. I put scarlet tux males over Tibetan tux hens, because why waste sex links on feather sexables, it’s a tool best used on range pattern and tuxes since you can’t sex them until maturity. Some colors combine with roux, like silver, and make sex links hard to gender, so stay away from silvers in sex links, but other people have used the trait in different combos, I think someone has a charcoal sex link project they wrote about on this site.Thank you. I'm just getting started with quail. I've been breeding Crested Cream Legbars for years and did not know about auto-sexing of quail. This was the only thread I'd seen on it here.
