Flamingo chicks

After a few years, the flamingos at Jurong have started breeding again. There were quite a few both in the lake with the parents and also at the breeding center gallery. Cute =

Which species? I heard a tale that it was the demonstration/performing group that bred.

This looks like Caribbean chicks.

How can you tell (please)?

I'm very sure the Greater have bred, both the performing group (a flock of over 50 birds) as well as the flock of over 300 birds at the Flamingo Lake.

The flamingo chicks are both from the lake and from the show flock. In addition there are close to 20 chicks being parent-raised at the flamingo lake. These are all Greater Flamingos.
I did see some Lesser Flamingos sitting on nests, also in the lake.
