Help With ID?

[javamilk99]

I've got one that I can't quite figure out...I have 3 that are pretty obviously the standard Pearls, but this lighter one doesn't quite seem to fit the bill for any standard colors. Blonde and Buff Dundotte are kinda close, but not a perfect match...
The keets I started with:


The lighter one now:






If anybody has any ideas, I'd greatly appreciate some help!

Going by the head stripes and it's coloring I would consider that to be a Brown (fully pearled), and probably a male because it seems light to me (my Brown males are always lighter than my Brown Hens). Another slight possibility is Cinnamon, going by just feather color alone, but the center head stripe is pretty dark so I'm still leaning towards Brown. Colors can really vary from bloodline to bloodline, so it's really difficult to ID certain birds that are not perfect matches to certain color charts that are out there online.

Thanks...a little more info - I'm pretty sure this is a female. We've got a 2-part call going on from it, and the wattles and helmet are smaller than on the 2 that think are male (again, based on calls)

OK, then if it turns out to be a Hen I'd call her a Cinnamon, going by what I hatch a lot of in that color family (but her head stripes are kinda dark in the pics). Some would still consider her a Brown, but IMO she is kind of in between the 2 colors, (in these pics at least, she may darken up as she matures tho). She will be fully pearled as an adult, no matter what color in the brown/buff/tan gene range she turns out to be.

Thank you so much...I've read your color expertise in several posts and was hoping you'd be able to help me!
