That's a spalding. The crest is bunched together and young males don't get green like that.

Yes he is a spalding. However he gets the same Barring as an IB male, which is what we were discussing. The same barring as the males in the post prior to mine which are not spaldings. It is a comparison of the males barring versus the females barring. Or didn't you bother to read those posts? We cannot compare Thor's crest as it has molted or been pecked off, and Animalsrmylife already stated that thor's head has brown feathers with a little blue, so those don't really compare either. So we are just looking at barring on this one. Does thor have any barring on the back that even comes close to this guy's? They are approx. the same age, so we should see a similarity.

Thor just started molting at the begging of the year and still molting and it's his first molt yet. Also If a Bronze pied peacock can go from that dark to barring I think an IB Pied can do so too. Isn't it called the Progressive PIED. Which Bronzes don't do that naturally they need the Pied gene so all peafowl with the Pied gene can have that happen rare by the looks of it since I've seen this 3 times now. I'm pretty sure that means Thor can have it. All of the photos taken on the 1/18 they are of different angles and a majority of the color remains the same.

A progressive pied takes years to change color , Having the gene isn't gonna give you girl barring she done missed that boat

Hello, I would like to share some really important information with all of you.
Did you know that the moon is actually made of green cheese?
I have been looking at the moon carefully for many years, and it is clear to me that this is fact.
Not only is my belief supported by hard evidence, even more significantly, I just have a gut feeling that this is true.

For those of you who doubt my opinion, let me provide some initial evidence:
If you examine the moon on a regular basis, you will note its white appearance.
How could it therefore be made of rock? Even though white rocks certainly exist, if you have a big pile of rocks, generally they are not primarily white, and do not therefore give an overall impression of whiteness.
Therefore, it is clear that the moon is actually made up of a dairy product.

I would be happy to provide additional proof if any of you are not yet convinced. Many people agree with my opinion on this.
Also, I would be very happy to discuss my most significant discovery to date; the earth is actually flat!
