February 3, 200817 yr I can't help you with what they are, but they are very cute! I love the colours
February 3, 200817 yr Im going to have a guess blue dominent pied Yellow face grey opaline spangle opaline lutino yellow face blue spangle
February 3, 200817 yr Blue Dominant Pied Grey YF2 opaline spangle Opaline DF Dominant Pied (green wing tips may be from rubbing on something before you got him?) YF2 Spangle
February 3, 200817 yr My guesses Sky blue dom pied cock Yf2 Cinnwing opaline spangle... I don't see grey i see a blue tinge to the feathers... and i'm guessing cinnwing in there as i can see brown in the wings in the second picture also the bird is slightly diluted, which cinnamon can do Opaline OR spangle (not both) Df dominant pied dark green... Have you got a better picture of it's barring? i can't tell if it's the clearer markings of an opaline or the Outer edges marked like a spangle... Yf2 cobalt spangle My best guesses.... Heinz Mix
February 4, 200817 yr The marking on the shoulders look almost recessive pied but then you have the double factor dominant pied look going too. I know Iris rings are not always reliable but in this case it would help since it is a hen and you can't go by the cere. I would wait and see if this bird gets an or both iris rings to see if it can help determine DF or SF. The beak is very orange too which is used as another indicator of a recessive pied too. Not sure if you can tell if the eyes are plum or if they are too dark and just look black at this point. Edited February 4, 200817 yr by Elly
February 6, 200817 yr Author She has one very faint iris ring and a dark green patch on her rump ,the same green that is on her wing tips if that helps. Edited February 6, 200817 yr by Budgie Smuggler
February 6, 200817 yr If an iris ring is showing she's DF dominant pretty bird I thought she was DF dom pied too
