Color question, what do you think?

Post by twubby00 »

This is my first IRN Dexter. I have only had him since yesterday and he's 8 weeks old. The breeder says he is a cinnamon grey green. What do you think? He seems like a very sweet boy just scared to death of hands.

Doesn't look right for a GreyGreen Cinnamon - I would go with just Greygreen .
Can you get get anymore full body shots preferably in natural light- no flash?

Hi Twubby
Definitely not Cinnamon Grey Green. I have a mature pet one, they were once called Golden Olive which is a reasonable colour descriptor but useless as a genetics based name. They are a very dark sort of "golden olive" yellow colour underneath and duller version of the same thing on the back, absolutely nothing like the lovely "dusty" green of your young one. Do you know what colour the parents are?
Kind regards
Mike

Unfortunately I do not know the parents' color. Here are some other pictures with no flash. His wings are darker than his trunk, his head is the lightest.
Thank you!

I have tried to find a picture of a turquiose. What do they look like? The rest of his clutch were lutino, and green (2 of each). Does this help any with my Dexter's color?
Thank you,
