please can anyone tell me what colours/splits/pied etc?

sunny-lutino

snowdrop-albino? she has fawn colour markings on her wings could she have a touch of cinnamon in her ?

grave- pied

bluebell- not albino but is white with a very slight pale blue if you catch her in the right light?

bluey-yellow faced blue body with hints of green on chest?

first of all, beautiful flock!!

 

Ill do it in the order you posted the pictures okay?

 

1. Foxy: skyblue (i think i see cinnamon, are his wings black and white or is the black looking more like greyish brown??)

 

2. snowdrop: i think albino (if you see brown anywhere its a lacewing)

 

3. Bluey: sky blue yellowface type 1 opaline

 

4. Grave: not sure (grey clearflight pied maybe...)

 

5. Sunny: Lutino

 

6. bluebell: sky blue dilute (not sure)

 

7. Breeze: sky blue recessive pied

 

i am not sure 100 percent with anyone of those so daz, feathers, elly, or ellulah will tell you...(those are the genetic expert people right?)

Snowdrop does he/she have red eyes?

Bluebell do you have shot of the back of the wings?

 

I suggest taking closer and clear pics of the birds back and front that really helps with no flash. The flash can sometimes make black look brown and wash out the colors.

 

pretty flock :)

hi elly

bluebell has black eyes.but looks either lace wing/spangled?

hi marlony

snow drop red eyes but has tinted brown bits could be lace wing?

foxy is a hen bird could that be why her wings are brown?

i have written down the notes so far .i will try to get close up pics of snow drop and bluebell.

i think the only one i got right waqs sunny and you cant mistake her to be lutino.

than i believe bluebell is lacewing... (elly, is there a dark eyed clear lacewing???)-that would make sense then...

 

foxy: if not completely black its a cinnamon. It has notthing to do with gender.. maybe greywing but i dont think so. any chance for another picture???

 

snowdrop is lacewing!!

Edited by Marlony

A lacewing is an albino with cinnamon markings so if they eyes are dark it is not a lacewing. I really need a better picture of the bird. From the picture I can't personally tell if it is a blue hue or if the bird is really just a light blue. If it is a blue hue it could be a double factor spangle (iris rings present) or a dark eyed clear (no iris rings)

 

Snowdrop, I see the red eyes and with the brown marking would make her a lacewing.

 

Bluey would be a yellow face type 2 if there is yellow bleeding into the chest making him green the more he molts you may find the more the yellowface gene spreads and this can turn a blue bird a "seafoam" green coloring.

 

Foxy is not a hen because the brown wing. Brown wings are the cinnamon mutation and can be found on male and females.

 

 

as for knowing if the bird is split for different genes that is unknown unless you know the parents, grandparents and so forth.

i am making notes so i can keep for a breeding profile etc.these pics should be better now hopefully please still let know the colour mutations though?thanks

bluebell is either 1 a dilute she is very light or 2 a greywing

 

the bottom blue one is a cobalt normal I belive the first picture was the sun making the wings look brown that happens to my Merlin too :P
