Those are awesome. I also managed to see some more photos and a video on FB, where the yellow appears even stronger.
It looks like a double-factoring of the red-removal gene, if such a thing is possible - a suped-up Seagreen.
Really looking forward to learning more about these.

I hope these photos help to contribute to the discussion. Joseph has asked me to handle any questions. He's a bit overwhelmed by all the attentions it is getting.
Regards,
Jade

Thank you to the Breeder, to Tint and to Jade for allowing us to see this. And Finchy that's a pretty good description. And Arthur, I like the "new" yellow better than the Seagreen too.

Welcome Jade and thanks for posting these pics here. Thanks also to Joseph, the breeder/owner.
I understand this is a single bird from a normal RF cock and pied hen. Obviously a Seagreen so Dad must be a Seagreen split and the Yellow-face a hen. I wonder if it is a morph of the seagreen or an entirely new morph.
Do we have any history on the parents? In particular, are they related?
This bird doesn't look like the "biscuit" (lighter) seagreens to me but I'm no PF aficionado.

Well that livened the place up a little . .
Nothing quite like a new mutation to get the blood flowing
Here's hoping that it becomes established . . . and with current genetic 'know-how' and the breeding capacity of RFPF's, it should . . .
Also welcome to the resultant new members
PS . . Just being 'devil's advocate' . . would expect that 'first' would be a hen, but does that head colour go beyond the eye??
