This is what Jean Pattison said about Senni eye color change:
"It is often thought eye color is a good indication of age in parrots, but this is definitely not the case with the Poicephalus. We have found, since breeding them in captivity, parent-raised youngsters will have adult eye color just a few weeks after leaving the nest... "
I found the article on the OPA (Organization of Professional Aviculturists, Inc.) Website.
( Poicephalus Size and Color )
Unfortunately, there wasn't much beyond the above statement regarding eye color change -- in Senegals, that is.
Due to unexpected company, this is all I managed to find tonight. I am going to look some more when I can.
