Oh man that's a lot of combinations! I'm kind of excited to see if you're right haha. I'll try and get better pictures tomorrow but the lighting in my home isn't very good.Chip and Rocky are Pharaohs. Pea can be Rosetta or scarlet, the lighting is a bit dark, but it will also grow to be a messy tuxedo (pied), probably white markings on the chest, chin, and possibly the wings. I believe plum is Rosetta messy tux, can you get a shot in good light from above so I can see its back? Peach looks like a Tibetan messy tux, it looks like there might be some brown on the head, so maybe a bit of Rosetta too, you find that a lot in mixed groups, you get some interesting combinations of incompletely dominant genes. I’d need to see photos of Cookie and Dot from above so I can see their back, and good lighting. I suspect Dot is somewhere between a pharaoh and Rosetta. With the light I can’t even confidently guess with Cookie, I need to see the stripes on its back, and the color in good light.
Peach is black and yellow with some faint traces of brown on the head yes, Cookie is a very pale yellow with pale brown stripes, and Dot has dried out more since that picture now and definitely looks more like Chip. The thing with Rocky though is that he has much more orangey main colour compared to Chip and Dot? It flares a lot around the head I find.
