Even if she is an other color than IB ... the peachicks will be IB ! ... split the color of the mother .

What color do you think she is? And why do you think she is something different than IB?

I don’t think she is of any color. As I have no experience with peafowls im new to it. And I’ve never seen silverpied birds until I bought them! Wasn’t trying to debate on anything just needed somebodies help to understand better!

I thought maybe you had some knowledge of what the parents are, that will give you a lot of background genetic information and clues as to what you may expect.

Female came from Leggs and male came from a breeder in Texas.
I’ve noticed the female is very light in color I thought IBSP hens are suppose to have some color on their neck. But all she has is grey and some brown color feathers on her. Same with the male all the silverpied peacock pics that I’ve seen on BYC are different they have more colors on them. Both of my birds have very few color. That’s the reason I asked.

Do you have a closeup of the back of her neck? You can send the wing tag number back to the breeder and ask for the parentage of the birds.

Couple of my IB blackshoulder peacocks showing off their bad looking 2 yr old trains. And my IB blackshoulder brood pen, then my IB pied pair I’m hoping will lay a couple eggs this year but nothing yet... do y’all usually get eggs from 2 yr old hens?? and would the be fertile with a 2 yr old male?

Two year hens normally lay at least one clutch of eggs. Two year old cocks will breed if they have a couple of eye feathers.

Here is the closeup of her neck and back. I couldn’t get her wingtag, hart to catch her without stressing her and her babies. But this is the the best I could get, what do you think?

Not the SP hen the BS hen. And the tip of her tail.
