I would say male, and low % spalding as well, because of the tight crest and dark wing feathers.

It is just a baby i have had a few with a crest that looked like that but when they got older it looked just like a regular IB just sayen, i see folks labeling spalding because of this baby crest and it just isn't always the case.

It is a pretty boy for sure

It is actually the pattern on the wing feathers more than the tight crest that makes me think spalding.

My males start out with brown feathers on their heads, just like their necks. As they get older and the green starts to come in on the necks in comes in on the heads as well.



Same male many months later.


Sorry for the bad picture.
