They're all very nice. I particularly like the darker coloured Violet hen. I reckon Renee might be right. You should at the very least keep the pre-selections honest with this array of Greywings :D

Wow! Should look a million bucks next year if she's looking this good now. Are they the same bird? The older one looks Grey Green whereas the younger one looks Dark Green. Could be my monitor again.

Dad was an olive green greywing so as a baby the hen baby had a bluish hue to her.

The birds look great, the camera seems great. All seems to be going well.

 

You are so lucky that your green greywing hens are split blue. Not only are going getting good greywings, but you are getting good blue greywings and you are getting more blues in your aviary, which some of us know has been a longtime goal of yours.

 

Well done Kaz.

Correction...long time goal of Kens. Ken is into blue things. If it takes having blue budgies to get him interested enough in them, then its more blue budgies I will have. :question:

Looking way into the future but I reckon the above 2 would make a fantastic pairing for next year. She's got dark markings, great wings, shoulder, length and feather. He's got the top end, shoulder and feather. Both very nice.

Whilst I lack the "Nostradamus-like" ability Daryl no doubt possess, it is fair to see he makes a strong point - :question:
