Help name the baby

I had a little surprise when I woke up this morning. I've got 15 quail eggs incubating in my grow room and they're not due to hatch until tomorrow but this little one made an early appearance.

I've been trying to think of a name but I thought it would be more fun if RIU could help. I'm hoping it's a female since I already have a great rooster and I need more hens for eggs.

Photos attached.

haha how do you know there due to hatch? are you like a wildlife guy

Nah, just a girl with a hobby. I don't have room for chickens, so I grow quail. The eggs are small, but we don't eat many so it works out.

Quail incubate 17-18 days and are pretty predictable for hatching, to the day anyway. You can't really pinpoint a time. I've hatched lots and its rare for them to be early. Late, yeah. Lots. But rarely are they early.

Awww, man, that is cool!!! I have no idea for a name....sorry I will think though! Are quail eggs the same as chicken eggs or do they taste different?

oh ha that seems pretty cool..what do you do with them when they hatch?

They taste exactly like chicken eggs - even better cuz they're fresh and I don't medicate or 'roid up the birds.

After they hatch, I keep them until I can sex them and then pick my favorite females and sell the rest.

Here's some pics of what they can look like grown. This particular breed is Cortunix. I think they're the best - friendly, good eggs and they make good pets. They're about the size of a small pigeon, I guess. You can keep 3-4 of them in one of those wire mesh rabbit cages.
