#1 looks like a cinnamon tuxedo, notice the bright yellow on the belly and the 'brown' on the back. A silver would be grey with yellow stripes or yellow with grey stripes.

hey shelly do cinnamons have the yellow stripes? becuase several of my chicks i think are cinnamons have orange/dark yellow stripes down the back and are starting to get silver/grey wing feathers?

Cinnamons are usually grey with light orange stripes. I'll find some baby button pics to show you...hope they are 'good' ones

ETA: Cinnamons probably change 'colors' the most when they are getting their feathers. Here's a pic of a cinnamon redbreasted male around 4 weeks old.

And again around 3 months old. (back left)

ETA again: Fugly here in the front (not the baby) was, I believe, 1 of the cinnamon bluefaces in the above pic (center and front right).

Okay, the 2 lighter ones in this pic (center and bottom left) were silvers. I had only 2 'pure' silvers, the others were silver redbreasts or silver pearls. ETA: Sorry, looks like 3 silvers in this pic.

This pic has 3 silver babies, center and the 2 in the corner.

I had only 1 'pure' cinnamon in this hatch and she is on the top center. All the other 'grey' or 'yellow' chicks were silver, silver redbreast, or silver pearl.

This is also a cinnamon (cinnamon pearl?) baby.
