Posted June 19, 201015 yr A bit confused with the mutation of this baby.... Mum Dad Baby....At this stage it is a very pale blue with no seen markings on wings, a few very faint bars on cap and light purple cheek patches? Just a poorly marked opaline spangle?
June 19, 201015 yr i would agree as theirs no markings on wings its classified as df :rofl: very nice bird also unless of course dad is split cinnamon ?????? Edited June 19, 201015 yr by GenericBlue
June 20, 201015 yr What a pretty girl! Wait until she moults properly - cinnamon will darken after the first moult. If no markings after that then she is a suffused DF. If it were a cock you could say definietly it is a suffused DF but a hen leaves the cinnamon option still open.
June 20, 201015 yr The cheek patches are slightly coloured so it could be a cinnamon spangle (provided it is female). I have seen double factor spangles with this much suffusion but they usually have white cheek patches
June 20, 201015 yr i was wondering about the cheek patches Nev. I was thinking DF spangle. could be cinnamon as others say
June 20, 201015 yr Author Thanks Everyone...... I am leaning towards this bird being female but would not like to say 100% just yet.... I also got a beautiful df spangle from this pairing.....
