That looks like a fawn pied. Fawn always have red eyes and I see some white pin feathers too. The fawn pied is one of my favorites. Congrats!

Very pretty little bird! It will be interesting to see it after its full adult molt.

I see the white on the one wing, so I wonder if that indicates a pied gene, like with zebras, but I'm not sure about the pied in Society's. The fawns and albinos have red eyes and the chick has red eyes, so maybe it will look pearl. I was told a pearl self, is genetically a chocolate Society.

I believe the red eyes indicate an Ino, such as Creamino, or an albino. Fawns normally have dark eyes.

They have light eyes at hatch, unfortunately, which makes it confusing. The eyes get darker as they age.
