So, does this mean FLUFFY is not female as the white cere indicates ??? :hug: and does this also mean that the green of the parent or parents could have been mistaken and was actually a violet green ? Kaz, if Dad is split opaline then 50% chance hens normals, 50% chance hens opaline. Not being a violet expert I would say that violet in greens might be hard to determine BUT violet sheen on neck does not always indicate violet in the bird. I have skys with a violet collar sheen that are definitely not violet. Unless your cock actually breeds something you can determine as definitely violet then I would say the jury is out.
