Noel my button quail. She was a double factor blueface, a mutation in which the females have a white bib (normally only found in males). Sadly, she died from eggbinding when she was only 4 months old - a common problem in buttons since their eggs are so large in proportion to their body.

Thanks for posting this! For some reason I thought all button quail were white. Shows you just how much I know about them, eh?
