About the Golds
Our Coturnix Golds come from Golden Manchurian males bred with Italian females. The result is a larger bird with a more vibrant color. Our Golds are good, consistent layers – see stats below. These quail are also feather-sexable, which means that at three weeks old, females have spotted chests and males have solid-colored chests. This allows you to separate out extra males before they reach maturity, which will prevent incidents of aggression!

About the Autumn Ambers
In addition to their stunning color, Autumn Ambers are good egg layers. They are feather-sexable, which means that you don’t have to wait for chicks to reach maturity to identify their gender. At 3 weeks old, feather-sexable females have spotted chests, males have solid-colored chests. That means you can select your breeding groups and separate extra males before they reach maturity, which can prevent incidents of aggression! You can also use Autumn Ambers to create chicks whose gender is identifiable AT HATCH! Watch video below for details.
