Hi Mike, congrats on your first Deeps. I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Deep Green in your nest, as there are quite a few variations about- some even look seemingly Wildtype.
How're your red eyed chicks going?

Hi all, was meaning to post before now, but he's definitely not a Violet Cobalt. Only way to describe his colour to someone without them seeing him in person, is that he is a better overall colour (deeper, richer) than a cobalt.

Hi Jordan, sorry for my late reply.
The Blue cock is split to Ino, and the hen is a Creamino (TurquoiseBlue Ino), so all will need to be dna'd sexed.
