    Default Valentines or Golden Valentines

    Does anyone have pictures of a group of valentines or golden valentines they have grown out from a spawn or purchase of a group?

    Its really hard to tell from a pic.. some pigeons are very clean. My best guess is thats got "gold diamond" in it. For its size it usually would be more orangish by now if pigeon and that charcoal look to the dorsal and ventral looks similar to what gold diamonds can have... whereas the body is clean of pepper.

    I got him from Pingco he said it was a golden crystal but the dark bands are not in the edge like most pigeon blind so that’s why I want to find out.IMG_2610.jpgIMG_2613.jpg Thank you for answering my question.

    Unfortunately, there are no hard definitions for these terms. If the seller gives it a name, that's what it is. Not to dismiss your concerns, but reputable sellers will always send you pictures of the fish prior to the sale. Don't be shy about asking.
    At my age, everything is irritating.
