BUT.... One of the babies is a dominant pied. The other two are albino so I guess I have an split albino male. So how does that work? It's definitely dom pied, not rec. Two iris rings. I'll go up and get pics now. Mum is cobalt spangle and the males are both normals. Any thoughts? Link to comment

Can you put some pics up of them? Clearflighteds are recessive aren't they? Link to comment

Sometimes the pied markings are so slight they are not noticeable, even to a somewhat experiences eye. I am sure that people far more experienced than me will be able to assist you int he correct identification. Link to comment

But if the baby is a dom pied, then this wouldn't work. I can't see any other indication of pied anywhere! Link to comment

If they are normal it will be grey. If it is white then it is a Dutch Pied and it will be the parent of the Pied. Link to comment
