Well, you can't say pearly white and be talking about white because Whites don't have any pearling... They are a solid color.

So would you also say my white peacock is not white because his eye feathers well have white eyes?

There are many,many shades of white, just like any other color'
Not trying to start a fuss here just wonder how you came to this conclusion

Here is the pearly white .

I'm so glad you chimed in, your birds are wicked....... I am green for the 1000th time today

And yes your right, with the white peafowl comparison, I know exactly what you mean.... Cheers for sharing

OMG you guineas are amazing... but for whatever a novice keepers opinion is worth... I do still agree with GL93... like ok, so we have a pure white guineafowl.. OK so we call it white fair enough... but when the white spots show up on the bird.. I dont know what Im trying to say really... maybe this bird should be called something other than pearly white? To avoid confusion?

Thanks
Zach

Hi bemba and mr bellmere,

Nice to be welcomed, thankyou both

Yes I do have guineafowl, I have Cinnamon, Pearl, Pearl Pied, Lavender and Lavender Pied... I am hoping to breed Cinnamon pieds in the future... and also obtain some silvers

I suppose the fact that I have red eyed cinnamons also confirms which country I am in

Thanks for the nice comment.
Now splaine to me how you are getting confused?
I have white GF (no pearls) and i have pearly white GF (with pearls).
IMO ..no different than saying i have lavender GF and i have lavender pied G
You are welcome to call them what you like

but they are pearly whites to me

I like the name too.

LOL Zach, come on, she bred the bird, shouldn't she be able to call it whatever she wants?

There are variations in all of our colors here in the US, why not in the White as well? I know you guys do not have much to work with down there as far as variations and mutations go but it doesn't take much for a new mutation to develop over here (which is why we have 20+ different colors plus). Zaz has a huge flock, of lots of colors... there's a pretty high chance of something new to pop up in her hatches.

Scroll up and read my first reply to you about opacity, you might have missed it.

Maybe the structure of the feather plays a role, ie, the "pearls" (in birds genetically pearled) appear different white in relation to surrounding white feather because that part of feather reflects/absorbs colour differently?
