Aloha!

Just trying to figure out if im right. Raised these two since they were a day old. There was a 3rd, the largest of the the 3, but he(?) dropped dead at 2 or 3 months :(

Im thinking they are IBs? One has a white feather on left wing, as well as a single white feather on front of neck.

Any help much appreciated :)

Mahalo nui!
 
Hi there, im no expert but I think you're right, two ib females. maybe the one with the white feather is mixed with something - only due to the white feather - I don't see anything else making them different. Beautiful girls :)
 
Agreed, 2 India Blue hens. The one w/ the tiny bits of white has some white genes. Very pretty girls!

if there is white in her genes, since there is only a single white feather on front and wing, would that probably mean its a bit diluted at this point?

though id really love to keep both, i may end up trading one for a white male that has been offered so as to have a breeding pair. if i do, would it make sense to keep the one that already has white? sorry all the questions, im new at all this!

Yes, to have White or Pied peachicks.
This peahen is a split White or a split Pied .
Here are the results of different crosses:

This peahen is the E peacock !
