Cuckoo Polish 'Anomaly'

[Fuzzychicken98]

I am establishing a breeding project. As this color is just something I am absolutely obsessed with since the first one was an oops from my cuckoo polish breeder. She's never had one this color come out of her line in all the years she's had them. They do not mix with the other birds either. BUT my beautiful girl has grown up, and I have gotten 2 gorgeous babies from her. But we cannot figure out what to call this. She's still got barring. It's just an odd color. And the babies look just like she did as a chick. There's one of her chicks in the first picture, and the other pictures are of her. Any advice on identifying this? Lavender cuckoo??? Light lemon cuckoo?? Her brothers and sisters and parents are all a darker blue cuckoo. And the roo I have who came from the same line is a double barred medium ish blue cuckoo.

I wonder if she's barred khaki... Khaki is sometimes seen in Polish. @RoostersAreAwesome, any ideas?

Can you post pictures of her parents, siblings, and/or your rooster from the same line?

First 3 pictures are parents. And the 4th and 5th are her siblings, last pics are the rooster. Who was also from the same hatch. Brother technically.

The dark chocolate in there came from a white crested chocolate hen that the same dad mated with.

I think it goofed up the order of those pictures. But the double barred roo isn't the dad. The single barred roo and the hen with the purple wall behind her are the parents.

Yeah, I agree that she’s a khaki cuckoo (aka barred khaki). It looks like you have a few dun cuckoos as well. Either both the parents are very dark dun cuckoos or one parent made contact with a khaki cuckoo at some point. Keep in mind that if you introduce blue and chocolate into duns/khakis it will be pretty hard to tell which genes the offspring have.
