thank you thank you - that's what i thought too

but i just wanted to make sure, I was only able to find one baby picture of a Cinnamon Pearl online that was around the same age as mine but mine is more feathered out so then the next pic under it the baby was about (a week to a week and half older then mine)

I couldn't find one the same excat age LOL but i thought they all looked like pearls to me :D

So that means Sun Dance is a white face pearl, and Goldie is in fact a Cinnamon Pearl Split to White face (its the only way I'd get white face pearls from this pair) :D :D


So both babies born with the yellow down - are the cinnamon pearls, and the other 3 are white face pearls :D

actually they are not cinnamon unless dad was also split cinnamon.. but they don´t look like...

to me, yes, they look like pearls... but last baby still not sure about him...

so the first yellow one is: normal pearl (unsure gender as both parents had the pearl so it could go either way)
three WF : Whiteface pearl (unsure gender as above)
last yellow one= unsure

and any males that result from this will be split cinnamon, you´ll just have to figure out which nes are males :p ;)

Ahh I think we have a cinnamon Pearl after all but it's white face cinnamon pearl

I'm not sure if you can see it in the photo, I was trying to get a good close up w/out going blurry from being to close

but we see it when we look at her/him

We had them out today, giving them scratches and weighing them and we noticed it :)

Here's the picture its on the tops where the feathers are starting to open up

wow he/she is gorgeous

I'm glad you can see what I'm talking about, i was hoping it showed up well on every one's monitors and not just mine :p

they all enjoyed their scratches and beak rubs they got today :)

I'm not planning on hand feeding them, but I do get them all out and give them group and individual attention daily, for a few mins ( i don't want to do it for too long until they get older and more used to us, don't want to stress them out or anything)

So they'll still be tame, just not hand fed and they'll still make good pets w/out being hand fed ?(or so I've read many times)

Oh they are so cute!! :D Snickers is living proof that a bird doesn't have to be handreared to be a great pet. He's a million times more confident than Bailee was at the same age, and i think it's 100% because of being parent reared but well socialised.
