This sassy little cutie has joined our flock! I think she has fawn coloring, but does anyone have any more insight or corrections?

I am currently planning on pairing her with a silver redbreast male. Any other suggestions for pairing?
 
I can only aggree, a real beautyful bird.

I got not experience with buttons, just Coturnix, but as my daughter wants so hard some buttons, I was just starting to take a look at the colors.

According to the following color sheet, my best guess would be a Golden Pearl female. But I really don't know... .

She's red breasted. Not sure if you by fawn mean cinnamon? If so, no, that would have made her black markings much paler. I don't think there is Golden Pearl in her either, but definitely red breasted. So pairing her with a red breasted male will give you red breasted babies :)
 
More updates! I think I found (real) cinnamon and ivory somewhere in my flock! The babies out of the 6 pairs I have are looking GREAT!
