Identifying DOA *pic trigger warning*

[Poodlemum]

Can anyone help identify this wer one? I’d like to confirm it’s not one of the Bielefelder (I know whiting true blues are pretty ambiguous)

What was in your order?

Mine was bright orange (the bottom rusty one). Kinda hard tell, I'll try to find a better picture of him.

The chick is of partridge pattern. I think Bielefelders are Wildtype, not sure.

I hope this might help. It's a picture of them as chick's as to how to sex them. I had it saved to my PC. The lighter colored one is the boy.

Wow, learning lots today! I didn’t know there were names for different “chipmunk” colours, off to google! Thank you!

Okay, only two breeds.

They maybe split for partridge though. I can't find tons of information on the breed.

I know welsummers were used in the mix when they're were being created, normally the coloration of Welsummers they call red partridge, but it's actually Red Duckwing. Not actually partridge.

Uhhh, pretty sure welsummers weren't used for the true blues. Maybe true greens, but not the blues
