They are both yellow, she has white face spots and is full yellow with black eyes. He has a yellow body- I think he's pied as he has green as well. and black eyes as well. Here are some pics of them. His cere is pink- he has bred before with the person I got him from and she said he is definately male. I have yet to breed them. My hen has a sore toe so I brought her inside yesterday- so I am taking this opportunity to bring in her mate as well and see if they will breed inside in a cage instead of in the aviary. Have them in a Large cage and will introduce a nesting box in 2 weeks. Edited June 9, 2008 by rah Link to comment

The hen, I am just taking a stab in the dark, is a black eyed self? Lutinos are yellow with red eyes and albinos are white with red eyes Link to comment

So is she a double factor spangle or a black eyed self? I'm slowly learning the genetics stuff. It's really interesting. What kind of baby's would they have? Link to comment

Can you get a close up of the side of her face? Link to comment

But any of that could change with hidden genes, e.g. splits and masked ones Link to comment

I viewed this file before I was able to post and decided that the hen was a double factor spangle not a lutino and that all her chicks would be spangles Link to comment

I am not gifted in genetics at all!! Were really proud of our little momma. I've had her for a long tome and this is her first clutch. They are all still in a cage inside from when she had a sore toe- but that has healed up, and I can't bring myself to put her back in the outside Aviary just yet. I was amazed at the colours of the babys and the girls think their little angels... Very different to all the Dom Pied blue/white babys we have everywhere here at the moment.. Link to comment

My first thought was when seeing the chicks was the hen must be DF spangle too. BUT comparing eye colour leads me to believe the eyes are red. I guess we need a better picture of the eyes.
