Warm amber-gold with deep auburn accents across the back, and the one variety here you can sex by looking at it.
Our own bird, photographed at home this summer.
Warm amber-gold with deep auburn running across the back and shoulders, and a plain buff chest with very little speckling. The gold reads warmer standing in daylight than it does on a screen, so do come and look at one at the fair.
Cream shells with brown speckling. Not blue.
Every quail here has eaten 100% certified organic feed for its entire life. Our quail hatch here and go straight onto a certified organic chick starter, then onto an organic grower ration once they are grown. Not one of them has ever eaten conventional feed. It costs us noticeably more and we think it shows, in the birds and in the eggs.
