My pictures are too large so I'm sharing a link to them on OneDrive here.
Dad is grey. Mom is cinnamon blue. Baby hatched with red eyes, so I initially thought albino but that's obviously not the case. Someone told me it might be pallid grey but the white tail is throwing me off. Is this pallid?

Violets?
I recently bought three violets (two sibling hens and one unrelated cock) from someone reputable. They are varying shades however and I'm wondering if there are other colors mixed in. Supposedly all the parents were violets. Wondering if any of these look like double factor or mauve or what. One of ...

DF or SF Violet?
Look at buying two of these birds. Can anyone tell me if they're DF or SF violet? Or at least confirm that they are violet and not something similar like cobalt? Hatched Feb 2016.

Re: Can someone ID these mutations?
So does that mean the Turquoise is split to blue? Or that it's got two blue genes but the Turquoise is masking the blue? Just trying to figure everything out so I can input it correctly in my genetics calculator. Also, how do you know if a grey is single or double factor? Is there any way to tell vi...

Can someone ID these mutations?
I'm looking at buying a couple of young ringnecks but I'm unsure of the coloration. One looks like turquoise and the other some sort of grey. Can anyone identify these for me?
