Halo Guys
once again I would like some help please.
I bought a lot of birds from a gentleman who never kept record he bought birds because they were defferent.
This pair I was told by him is a DF Misty blue male and the hen a SL advocado.
what puzzeled me more is the chicks from this pair was three different colours.
the male.

Buks V,
The cock is a Cinnamon Blue - he has the typical brown feather shafts, light coloured feet and colouring.

The hen only appears to be a GreyGreen Cinnamon (no SL Edge)- and that explains the differences in the chicks- one Grey Cinnamon, one Green Cinnamon and one GreyGreen Cinnamon---- you'll need to dna these to find out their genders.


Jacko- you'll need to upload a pic :wink:

Hi Oom Buks,

I think Shey is right, that isn't a DF misty cock, but rather a cinnamon blue (skyblue is the old name).
