Who would you pair this little guy up with?

Silver coturnix...What is that?
Are you sure you are not talking about buttons? I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed, but I don't know what a silver coturnix is...

Please explain

SILVERS ARE RARE IN THE US AND NORTH AMERICA FOR THAT MATTER
BASICALLY THEY ARE A BROWN THAT IS DEVOID OF RED PIGMENT AND THE BLACK PIGMENT IS DILUTE. SO WHAT YOU HAVE IS A WILD PATTERN BIRD THATS IN SHADES OF SLATE BLUE/ GREY. QUITE ATTRACTIVE LIL BOOGERZ

These are silvers/blues. www.backyardchickens.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=251870&p=1

Thank
you all for your help. I think that I have figured out who I am going to put this bird with next spring depending on gender. If he is a little boy I have a beautiful blue tinted wild hen I will put him with and if by some miracle he happens to be a she I hopefully will still be able to pick up some EW's with spots from a breeder on here.

Thanks JJ and thanks peewee, for the pic reference! I won't be getting any of that color anytime soon. It's probably an unpredictable size/color/pattern, that is only available "Down Under". I can appreciate that.
