Color of new baby chicks

[Jan]

Hi all,

I have taken a skyblue female and a olive male to mate this year.
The female hatched 3 beautifull chicks. two are i presume skyblue and the other one, well don't know.
he is not grey by color more like a very light beige. I have never seen this color before. any one that can tell me the color of the light colored IRN chick.

and this is the parrents


Thanks Jan

I would say its silver (grey blue cinnimon) and that means your male must is greygreen split blue cinnimon, and not an olive.

It is the only way you can get both silver and sky blue baies that i can see.

Thanks Glenn
