Or am I going to play a guessing game .... LOL ..... You need a yellow face budgie and you need a grey budgie and hope for the best. The nicest YF budgies are the YF grey spangles, I think Edited February 25, 2008 by KAZ Link to comment

Grey is an adding factor so a white based budgie would be grey (vs blue) and a yellow based budgie would be a green grey budgie so you understand how the gene works. To get the full details on Grey Budgies and breeding them you will want to go here The Budgie Place I find this site very resourceful and put very well in words that a novice (such as myself) can understand.

Remember that the grey bird is a blue based bird. So pairing a grey to a green will not get you grey birds. Link to comment

Guest neatabudgie Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hi Neat, Just adding one of mine called Graye.. He's a gorgeous boy, currently in a breeding cabinet! Feathers. HEYYYYYY FEATHERS ..... ( how are you ) I honestly didn't think that there were that many * Proves I am still Blonde (Laughing out loud) Sweet I think that I will have to do more researching I just HOnestly couldn't understand the whole gentics so I am guessing I will throw a couple in and see how we go :mellow: Link to comment

( how are you ) HEEEYYYYY NEAT... I am really good, thanks for asking. Budgies are all good too The genetics for a YF grey is really easy... you just need a YF bird and a grey... 50% chance that you will get a YF grey from the mix. So throwing a couple of birds together sounds like the way to go. Feathers. Link to comment
Guest neatabudgie Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 The thing is I still can't grasp the whole gene thing I guess I will hope for the best (Laughing out loud) .... And re read everything all over again Link to comment
