Question
How do you tell the diff. between mail /female ? on tenn. red quail

Answer
Hello francisx@comcast.net and thank you for your post.
I do not know too much about quails, abut as far as I know, the female whould have a slightly wider stance than a male (allowing for her uterus).  Other than that, the only other two ways that I know of are a DNA Test, or wait and see if the bird lays eggs.
I'm sorry that I can't give you a better answer than that, but my expertise is geared more for Parrots.

Good luck and God Bless.
