What should the offspring look like?

What can I expect the offspring to be with these birds paired together? The male is supposed to be a reduced dominant opal and the female a black.

Re: Opal?

Ok thanks. So if I pair the tiger grizzle with a blue checker I have Do I get more tiger grizzle? Or do I need to pair it with a black bird that I have?

Opal?

Re: Bird colors

Ok thanks. And they both do have dark gray/black tail bars. I kinda have a mixed bunch of birds and will probably post some other pics in a day or so. Both of these birds have shown a little more reddish tint to their feathers as the adult feathers grow in. They are both hens as far as I know and bo...

I've gotten a few birds from a new friend of mine who has had pigeons for years. I've been watching them grow and progress into some decent rollers...
