Hey everyone,

So from my new covey of 10 'laying females' I lost one, and 4 turned out to be male :gigSO. I've swapped 3 of the males for HOPEFULLY 3 females from the original breeder (although a foamy poop in my halfway house that the newbies are transitioning in has me feeling a bit deflated), and one is a new colour for me.

What is s/he? The breeder said "cinnamon pharaoh" with a shrug, and google hasn't really helped me. I suppose I should also ask if s/he's feather sexable?

I would say it’s egyptian or sex linked brown.

Hmm based on that reference she looks like a cross between an Egyptian and a cinnamon - my camera has distorted her colour a bit and made her look more of a reddish brown when she's more subdued and grey in real life .
These are a little more accurate, but still throwing a bit more brown than is true.
