Striking colour contrasts, beautifully patterned plumage, and distinctive markings make our Jumbo Tuxedo Mix Coturnix Quail Collection a remarkable addition to any flock.

Scientific Name: Coturnix japonica
Colour Variety: Assorted Tuxedo's
Size Classification: Jumbo

Our Jumbo Tuxedo Mix Collection showcases an assortment of beautifully coloured Coturnix quail, each displaying the characteristic tuxedo plumage pattern. These birds are recognised for their contrasting white feather markings, typically concentrated around the chest, throat, and underside, while the head, back, wings, and upper body retain their underlying colour variety.

The collection features a diverse selection of tuxedo colour combinations, ranging from deep chocolate browns and rich reddish tones to soft golden shades, silvery greys, and other distinctive variations. Depending on the individual bird, the white markings may form a prominent chest bib, extend across the breast and abdomen, or appear as irregular patches that create an attractive piebald appearance.

Each tuxedo quail has its own distinctive feather pattern, with variations in colour intensity, white coverage, and feather distribution. Some birds exhibit bold, sharply contrasting markings, while others display softer transitions between their coloured and white plumage.

As part of our Jumbo Coturnix range, these quail are bred from larger-bodied lines and retain the compact, rounded body structure, broad breast, and sturdy build characteristic of Jumbo Coturnix varieties.
