The breeder felt mine was probably male but from behaviour "he" strikes me more as a girl. We're trying to figure out a name but of course in part that will depend upon if she is a she or a he! The colour from what I have gathered looking online is a yellowface type two grey recessive pied if that helps? (And if I'm wrong, would someone mind telling me the proper colour if possible?) Thanks in advance for all your help! Link to comment

Do these shots work a bit better for you or would a close up be better? Link to comment

Please correct me if i'm wrong Thanks Link to comment

That makes naming him lots easier! Being a bit of a fan of the old Westerns, he'll be Roy Rogers then. I've had and bred English budgies some years ago but always kept cobalt and green with nothing more fancy than a cinnamon, so I've never had to deal with a pied! Link to comment
