Peachick chart

Some abbreviations that may appear on this page:

Please note that some colors are difficult to differentiate between when they are very young. Although the Database strives for accurate identification, IDs made in this section are given to us by those who submit the photos.

If you have previously submitted a peachick photo that you later learned was incorrect based on the adult bird, please let us know​ so we can update.
