The last 2 pictures came from

I'm trying to figure out Jill, Lucky and J.J's Mutation since the got the main mutation from mom , they got the pearl from dad. and their split to dads mutation which was Emerald(AKA OLIVE)
but i still can't figure out what mutation they are

to me they look like cinnamon pearl pieds... but maybe because of dad being an emerald they have this hue.. but not as the bird you posted

I don't know why they keep coming out looking cinnamon in pictures - they have absolutely no cinnamon on them at all, neither did their dad In person you can tell they are Silver in color, I'm just trying to figure out which Silver - since none of them have red eyes like the Recessive Silver does.

if they do look silver maybe they are suffused like the pics.. only that in those pics it shows better coloring, could be a camera/lighting issue... only you know better... but it they donīt look cinnamon in person then I think you are right and they are some kinda silver...

Yeah Im still figuring out my camera it came with a Encyclopedia I mean hand book but it's all confusing to me I learn better just messing around with the buttons, maybe I'll do that this weekend if i have time, Try to get better lighting, use different settings and such to get a pic that is more true to what they look like in person and of course it would help me a lot too if they would Stand still :p

me too!!.. you can use it in bright daylight and speed it up so you donīt get blurry shots... you can use the macro or the super macro... (TV) go to up to 1500 or so, play with it
you can also use aperture setting in the lowest so more light gets in and you get more details... (AV) go to 4, 3.5 or lower depending on lighting
you can try using the inside mode too...
to not get bright flash light bounce back use a piece of paper over the flash so it softens it...

Awesome Thank you :)
I actually have been doing the paper trick - some one else told me about that, If i don't have a piece of paper handy I always have tissues or paper towels in reach So i've been using that as well
the only thing that stinks is when the flash hits the paper and blinds me LOL
but i'm getting used to it the more I do it.
