Any idea what colour these juvies will turn out to be?
Is it too soon to tell what gender and colour these little guys will turn out?
Two gouldians, two gold breast waxbills, two societies, four zebras, two canaries, one hamster, one freshwater fish tank, one salt water fish tank.

Re: Any idea what colour these juvies will turn out to be?
Ok I am new to this and learning(genetics)....so I am gonna take a shot at it...and see if I am close. So I am not confident but guessing for a learning experience for myself!!!!!
wait for the others.
I am going with yb hen, and hard to tell from darkness but if those arent normals...the darker ones could maybe be dilute males????

I will take a guess and say that the one in the front will be a RH PB YB hen, two RH PB GB cocks, and one RH PB SFY cock.

No guesses from those pictures but the one in the front looks awful puffed, is it just the picture or is it always that puffed up?
