Paypal does not work with my computer, it always screws up, so if you are interested, PM me. I will give you my adress and you will have to mail me the money, then when I receive it I will be sending out your order. Yes, my process does take a little longer, but it is the only way I can ensure that my computer doesn't accidentally charge you three times.

I know what color they are from a genetic calculator. (and from hatching them)
No, no pics of older ones... The offspring in the pic is the oldest I have (hard to say what age... guessing around three months old in the pic)

ETA: The chick in the 2nd pic grew up to be a red/brown splash variation
