I have grown up with guineas but we only ever kept pearls, i finally got some adult pearls and caught the color bug. I got some mixed color keets! Can any one help me identify what colors I have? Thanks!

I see lots of Pied Pearl Greys, a few regular Pearl Greys, several pure Whites (but you may have an Ivory in there, hard to tell in the pics), a Copper and a Violet (Coppers feather in a little lighter than the Violets). Looks like a couple of your Pied Pearl Greys hatched with solid or blended colored down (the one on the far left and the far right, both have the extra wide center head stripe) but are feathering in now as normal looking Pied Pearls.
Cute batch, congrats.

Then you may want to sell off a few of the Pearl Greys and Pied Pearl Greys. The Pearl Grey color gene is very dominant and usually covers up anything recessive (blue is recessive to grey).
