New bengalese mutation??? Please look
Hi. I have had 2 very strange chicks born recently.
One is just going through his first moult and i have sexed him as a male.
The second has JUST fledged today so i whipped my phone out and took some pics. Im hoping it will be a hen.
So here is the baby just fledged. who appears to be A dark grey which i have NEVER seen before and there is no registered mutation either.

And here is the fledged boy. He appears to be lightly pied dark grey. Again i have never seen a bengalese like this.

Sorry about the picture quality of the boy as i couldnt get him to stay still.
What do you think? I was thinking/hoping of pairing them up. Im not a hundred percent certain though that they are related - brother and sister. its a 20% chance (had some rejected so had to put them with a foster family)
Im thinking this trait i want to keep so its worth inbreeding.
