we are trying to figure out what mutation this might be. we are thinking it is a cinnamon turquoise-blue. What do you guys think?

I have no clue what it might be, as I can barely distinguish blues and turquoise...

But it's a really beautiful bird! Although it probably wouldn't help me any, pictures of the head from the front might be helpful...it may be one of those clearhead-like mutations that make them kinda yellow...or maybe I have no clue what I'm talking about...that's most likely. Again, that's one beautiful bird!!

This should be a Pallid Turquoise Blue Cock (not sure because you cut of the flight feathers)

I agree with you. It looks more like a pallid than a cinnamon. Colours are lighther, the lower part of the beck is red and the ring is less marked than in cinnamons.
