Fantail Pigeon Color Identification

[heatherbell2]

Finally remembered to take a picture !! Anyone have some experience with fantail pigeon colors & genetics? Im not sure what color I'm going to end up with but the male is barless and has a really pretty almost lavender red hue with colorful iridescent .. I'll have to get a better picture- does anyone have an idea what the correct color name would be? The hen is saddled.

I'm sorry no one ever got back to you! The last two pictures you sent looks like you will have a white one? I'm not sure as they don't have enough feathers to really Identify(?).

Does the one still not have pin feathers coming out? It should have some by this point.

As for the parents, I'm not 100% sure what the name would be for there colors. They one looks like a cream color and the other has brown and white....

No worries.. Just curious on parents coloring.. i figure since the pin feathers are light it'll probably some variant of saddle & white

You're probably correct about that. Keep us posted with pictures as the feathers come out!

Do they change color after a 1st molt?
