Well one thing you can guarantee is that they are good quality birds.

With the Fawn possible split silver cock bird with the grey hen bird we are trying to achieve a silver and with the Pied cock bird with the pure white hen bird we are trying to get a pied with more white in it.
What do you think FM101

You've done well with that Pied Harv, its almost perfectly marked apart from the one check patch, I dare say you could go far with it if you want to show them. One trick I use to use with cock Zebs when showing was to put a very thin wipe of vasaline on the beak to make it shine & clear looking, not sure if this is still done as it's been nearly 15 years since I was full time showing.
