Hello,

Silver = Grey Cinnamon
Pastel = Turquoise

You cant have a visual Grey bird and have it split Turquoise. It is either turquoise, or it isnt unless you are talking about green birds... they can be split turquoise, its a genetic twist with blue that you cannot have a blue or grey bird split turquoise. (visual grey is actually blue and grey genes)

I would place a guess that the mother was a Pallid... the old debunked name for pastel is Lacewing if that rings a bell.

To have a cinnamon male young, the hen would have to also have been Cinnamon as well.

Do you know what the father was?

the grey cinnamon is three years old the cock his father looks like the cinnamon torquise blue hen on the pastel blu sex linked post

hen had white head light blue body i think may have been lace wing
