I had assumed that the cocks I got last year were green cinn/ino but after this years breeding all the females should have been cinnamon green or cinnamon Lutino, I only bred one hen and it was a normal lutino hen so I'm back to the drawing board and still not sure what the cocks are because they clearly arnt cinnamon otherwise the hen would be a cinnamon ino. Will wait to this breeding season to know for sure but just after some other suggestions on what it could possibly be.

From what I've heard young cinnamon-ino birds start out like normal ino and get some green colour later on. I'm not an expert on them, though.

To me that male is a cinnamon.
So the young has to be Cinnamon-Ino
The central tail feather is lighter and if my eyes don't fool me the young has a paler yellow as opposed to a strong yellow in an INO
Show Todd on FB the young chick, he is into Cinnamon.
