Okay, more help on colors! These are Catdance fellows!



Partridge?


Color? I LOVE this little guy!! He is tiny, and ADORABLE!

Added because I just love this picture! One of the white guys!

Thanks!!

No, he is not partridge, He is grey plus autosomal red. Sometimes nicknamed tort or tortoise shell. I would say that the second looks to have columbian patterning. Probably self-blue plus other genes.

In the last photo, the blue is pretty dark, but is definitely blue.

Hmm, okay. I think my computer is showng him more gold looking. Fisherman'swife what were the eggs marked? I know Karen marks all her eggs with the pens they came from. You could also ask her on facebook? She would know the colors of her own birds better than anyone

She did mark the eggs, and there was a good variety. I had paint, splash, lavender and others. I had 18 hatch and couldn't remember who was who! I didn't know she is on FB. That's a great idea!
