Our brains will adjust automatically to light change so we dont notice different colours. Your babies are stunning!! You have some winners there Link to comment

So, does this mean FLUFFY is not female as the white cere indicates ??? and does this also mean that the green of the parent or parents could have been mistaken and was actually a violet green ?

As for the parent - its likely the dad but its hard to say. I have had a violet pop out of a YF2 sky blue and a light grey hen. Neither parent anyone would suspect as being violet or carriers.
