SO IS THE TOP ONE SPLIT TO WHITE ALSO?

I am always hatching something from-3 peafowl (purple cock over purple hen and a blue split to white hen), a pair of red golden pheasants, 3 muscovy ducks, 4 BCM (1 roo/3 hens), 7 EE (1 roo, 5 hens of various colors), 7 silkies 1 showgirl hen, several mixed laying hens, 6 coturnix quail. More farm life with goats and rabbits.  One wonderful man, a grown son and daughter and 4 grand kids.

No I'm thinking it's just that it's a juvenile black shoulder peacock ?

The first bird is an India Blue blackshoulder yearling male. Second appears to be an India Blue male, split to blackshoulder. He has less barring than usual, and more black and blue iridescence on the lower part of his wings.
