not uncommon for quail to lay bluish eggs, silers often do it.

yes my quail lay blueish eggs, often speckled a bit with green and brown.
In different lights the eggs might look sickly green :

Too soon to tell. Just leave it to the quail to work out. Mine lay from quite blue to quite green. And vary from almost completely clear to middling speckles. Does not seem to make any difference to the fertility.
