    Guinea color question- anyone know genetics well?

    taken today.....theyve grown a bit more and they have a couple "off colored" feathers that are not white, but not full color either. More of a washed out pearl that is in the center of the feathers but white edges. hard to see colors accurately in pics since we had to use flash :/

I dont have...
