None of this group are fully pearled, they just haven’t gotten their adult feather pattern in yet. I don’t have the best baby pictures, but I have a few…The one on the right in this picture is not a Chocolate. It appears to be fully pearled. Chocolates are semi pearled.
These appear to be fully pearled which means they are not Royal Purples.
One of the royal purples just after hatching:
A little older (weird lighting/phone camera is making it look grey but you can see the wavy head stripes):
Cinnamon (name of the bird, not the color) as a hatchling. This is the one I’ve been most uncertain about, and I’m not certain it’s a chocolate. It seems lighter colored than I thought chocolate would be. It has had the same feather pattern as the RPs, but has had a cinnamon base color instead, thus the name…
At any rate, let’s hope that they get the chance to show us their adult feathers! I’ll make sure to post and update!
