My girl has been taking pictures since she was big enough to hold a camera. I have tons saved that I have been putting in an album that I plan on giving her when she's all grown up. It is kinda funny looking through them, shejust like every child went thrthrough phases where she was obsessed... -

My lovely 8 year old wanted to help and take pictures for me. So here is a FABULOUS pic of my male. ( her words of course) I will try to get a better one tomorrow. I didn't have any of the chick that was worth posting. I think she was trying for action shots? But I learned my lesson and will... -

Mine don't really look like either. She is more of a tan color and has no white on her wings. I will try to get a better picture of her out in the light here in a little bit. Thank you all for being so patient with me. -

Do the cameos or purples have any barring as chicks? My girl has none. Also if a male is split ib/purple when he gets fully grown and colored out could he display some purple ? My male has gotten alot darker on his chest and the top of his wings. It looks black really but in the right light it... -

So my male could be... -

I love learning new things. :-) but I want to be sure I have this correct. If my male is split cameo or split purple then any of the male ib baby's will be also? And if I breed a baby back to mom they will be mostly purples or cameos with some being ib split cameo or purple? What if I breed... -

I talked to the guy that I got my pair from and he couldn't remember which pen mine come from. He has a pen with a purple hen and one with a cameo hen. He said he thinks mine looks more like a cameo but it was hard to say judging by my horrible pics. If it did come from a cameo pen and is in... -

Cameo? Is that possible out of two ibs? I have one male and one female and these babies are theirs. Im not going to complain that they could both be females bc the other 2 look exactly like the darkest one and I would be fine with all girls :-) I never get that lucky. Lol -

This one is just as dark as the one on the top though you can't really tell by this pic. But it's wings are a bit lighter. -
