Pheasant People--What color are we?

[bantamsrus]

I bought these as chicks and told they were yellow--as they've feathered out it's clear they're not. But what color are they? They're starting to get the red on the heads.

Ones in question--The two lighter ones in the foreground of the reds

Ones in question--The two lighter ones to the left of the red

Thanks!!!

The two light ones look like my Cinnamon Goldens. No Yellow gold to be found there, yellow gold will be a very light cream color. The other two look like hens, not sure yet what Cinnamon hens look like, as mine are maturing.

Yes Cinnamon goldens.

Also in the first pic, second pen- do you have a splash golden in there? I can't tell if its the angle of the photo or if the bird does has a white throat and what it's body color is.

My cinnamons I got from a breeder are very chocolate color--they were very different from the other goldens even as chicks. In that first picture that's a cinnamon splash in the next cage over (I can load better pics of the cinnamons tomorrow)--that's why I didn't think these guys were cinnamons. They looked like yellows when I got them as chicks but as they started to feather out they got a red hue to them. What does red x yellow = ? Will you get either color or mutts?

And this is one of my yellow males

Here's pics of the boys today--they seem to be coloring the same as the reds--maybe they're just lighter reds? I'm tempted to keep them just to see what they end up looking like (although I really don't need that many males around).

(one in question on the L, a red is on the R)

here's some pics of known cinnamons for comparison
