Hope so! The ones you have with the black face. do they breed breed true? Also how much do they run?

Black Face as in the Blue Faces? Or Black Face Red Breasteds?

the black face red breasted ones. what would you pair the silver up with of the 2 girls I have if it's a bou of course. the lighter or darker one?

 

[Stellar]

Your lighter one could be paired with the silver to get lighter babies, I know that more Blue faced silver red breasteds come from the red breasteds and the silvers being paired up.

Almost all my button pens open from the top. Put a towel over the top of the box and take the lid off. Then they can boink to their heart's content and they won't hurt themselves

If you do happen to need some, I have 10 extra boys as of right now looking for new homes. 5 are from a hatch a few months ago, 2 are about 6 months old, and the other 3 are almost 2 years old. There are 3 cinnamon blue face, a black-faced redbreast (aka Darth Vader), 3 silver red breasts, and 3 wild or golden pearls (I have trouble distinguishing the two). Cost of shipping and you can have as many as you want

ok I was going to update pics ,but I had to charge it first.

So till I can post pics, I need info again.
For male red feathers around vent? (red as in really red or pinkish red?)
One of the should be girls is getting red around face and neck towards the chest. still has specs on breast.
The silver looks to be getting darker feathers around face, pos blue faced? can see no specs and looks to be pinkish around vent.
The dark brown is still the same just getting bigger chest is lighter color with red coming in on the head. Still has specs ,but not like the other two.
Bummble Bee looks to have silver in her. Very light brown with the silver/ wht color all over with specs on the breast.
I can not really tell on the others about vent. The silver seems to like me.
Hope this makes since to everyone.
