Not many people seem to be on at the moment, so my best advice is to just wait until, the baby is grown and then you can tell for certain. Link to comment

The baby is almost fully feathered so it should be easier to see his mutation. Here are some pictures from today! I was thinking he might be a dark green normal, grey wing? But I'm not sure!! Sorry the Pictures aren't the best he is constantly moving, so they turn out blurry! Link to comment

You may have to see how it moults out. Cheers Jenny Link to comment
