need help on what kind of peafowl this is

[Birdrain92]

Just to fill you in; when people only say a pattern most likely they're referring to the Blue color. With Spaldings, Spalding is the normal color. Spalding peafowl are peafowl that are crossed between the Indian species and the Green species. Spaldings don't work the same as color and pattern mutations. Spaldings you can't breed together and get a Green peafowl or an Indian peafowl. You only get Spalding. The colors Indian peafowl come in are: Blue, Midnight, Cameo, Peach, Purple, Opal, Bronze, Violeta, Taupe, Charcoal. Pattern mutations consist of: Barred, Black Shoulder, Pied, Silver Pied, White Eye. White it depends on who you talk to. White can fall underneath both mutations. Some may think it's a color because you can have a White peafowl have these patterns. Then it acts as a pattern because it's required for some of the other patterns such as Pied. Pied and Silver Pied don't breed true. It's because they need both a Pied allele and a White allele. Silver Pied also requires White Eyed.

Cameo, Peach, Purple, and Violeta are sex link genes. Unlike mammals sex chromosomes X and Y, avians have Z and W. Males are ZZ, females are ZW. Sex link genes are on the Z chromosome. Because of this females can't be split to. Males can be the sex link color, split to, or not carry a sex link gene at all. Because of this you can sometimes get a surprise if the male is split to a sex link color. All colors and patterns are recessive to the original Blue color and barred pattern. White and Pied alleles are incomplete dominance to the original variety.

If you don't want to do DNA sexing you can wait for the White peachick to get close to a year old. You can sex them based on the structure of the neck feathers. You have to wait for them to be close to a year old though. Here are some photos of neck feathers. Indian Blues and White peafowl neck feathers are similar structures.
White peacock. Hair like structures.

White peahen. Scale like structure.

Indian Blue peacock. hair like structures.

What do you mean label is not full lacks one color? New to peafowl trying to learn as much as possible

When you describe a bird, 'label', you state the color first followed by pattern then list any splits when known. Here in the states people in the 'industry' will state Black Shoulder Dark Pied White Eye, and will assume that it is India Blue. The correct 'label', description would be India Blue Black Shoulder Dark Pied White Eye. This is that bird.
