Do you keep all of your birds picture on your cellphone?

Yes, it's my way of keeping record.

Though I lost a few pictures that never transferred over when I switched, or accidentally deleted.

But if you lose your phone you will lose all of those pictures. Do you have them on the Cloud?

My phone usually stays at home so I don't lose it, or left in the car when in town.

I guess you call it that, they're all saved on SD card, & my account.

Hey I have a light sussex hen who has a greyish blue tint with yellow... now I know the standard for light sussex is orange (to red in males). I have crossed her with a male who has deep orange/red eyes and they offspring still have a greyish blue tint with yellow, not the orange I'm aiming for... are orange eyes not dominant?

It would appear that the greyish blue tint eyes are dominant over the orange eyes, there are many colors of eyes, there are eyes that are nearly white or very pale yellow, those are recessive to orange.

It depends on where you start at? Asils and Orientals on their own have shorter beaks

4 of my Malays have pretty short beaks, 2 of my Malay hens have the shortest beaks of all birds I have right now.
