Can you post a pic? Regardless, the beak should be red and only get more red until it is more of a coral.


This is how a 5 month old Irn should look

And her beak will continue to get deeper and deeper in color. She was almost 5 months in that pic.

Shew, a face only a mother could love :shock:

he seems a bit bigger than that but the colour red is no where near that. i'll see if i can get a picture sorted when i get home.

thanks

My Hane has more black on his beak than some other IRNs. But it's not pale in colour, only deep red and black on the edges.
