Kaz kindly informed me that they were both female, but Im a little confused about the difference between the 2..... Once again here is the Dad Mum and dad The 2 babies, photo taken today. one is 17 days old and the other is 16 days old. The one the pinky white head is the oldest at 17 days old and the one with the black looking head is 16 days old..... Im assuming they are both going to be Blue like the mother, but Im confused as to why one has a pinky white looking head and the other has a black - grey looking head... Thanks, jason Link to comment

We need more piks of that one and both will be blue series so that means the Dad is split blue Edited July 5, 2011 by **KAZ** Link to comment

I will put some new pics up tomorrow of the one with the black head.....hopefully i can get a good picture of the cere so you can determine the sex for me.... So, if the black head one isnt opaline, any ideas on what it is based on the previous pics, or do you need more close ups of its back and front ? cheers Link to comment

I took a few pics off its cere and hoping you can tell the sex for me. The pics arent too good, but hopefully you can get an idea..... One picture ( the LAST ONE ) was taken with the flash on and the others with it off. This last one is the flash picture - I think.... Im hoping its a male, but going by things ive seen online im swaying towards female.... thanks Link to comment

The first chick is a TCB for sure, and the second one may be as well? Link to comment

Would that be right? And if so, then for that second chick to be female, doesn't it also HAVE to be opaline? Or maybe the cock really isn't opaline, and I'm just seeing things. Link to comment

I have quite a few, and also have normals. This is an opaline clearbody . If both chicks are clearbodies, then that means that they are both hens.
