  1. If he is over 6 months old and he still has a pink cere I am going with recessive pied as Kaz said. Double Factors are all yellow and may have a hue of green. He has green under his tail and I see a pied spot on his shoulder. In fact he may be a yellowface type 2 if the color between the feet looks more green bluish then the normal green?
  2. Cute I can't wait to see them feather up more keep us posted on pics.
  3. isn't that the truth Aly

  10. bluebell is either 1 a dilute she is very light or 2 a greywing the bottom blue one is a cobalt normal I belive the first picture was the sun making the wings look brown that happens to my Merlin too
  11. my boys got at least 12 hours, it really helped
  12. not too big but too small (Laughing out loud) but that is okay, if you could enlarge just a bit that would be good. From here bluebell looks like a greywing

  24. Here is an interesting article I am reading in my search for information http://homepage.ntlworld.com/k_jones/clwyd...ety_dilutes.htm by Al-Nassar and it talks about dilutes and the 2 different types of whites you can have that part is very interesting and can pertain to this bird. DFS and a white dilute with grey suffusion would show the same features of the blue cere and iris ring? okay I am probably looking into this too much here is information I found that a dilute clearwing can be "sf Clearwing * sf Clearwing = 25% df Clearwing + 50% sf Clearwing + 25% Dilute (2) In this type of pairing, if one of the parents is split for suffused Dilute, then the Dilute youngsters will be heavily suffused with body colour. These are occasionally referred to as dilute Greywings or sometimes dilute Clearwings. If the Clearwing parents are both split for the lightly suffused Dilute (the cinnamon-free Black-eyed Self) then the Dilutes will look like a Cinnamon-free Black-eyed Self, or a lightly suffused Yellow or White free of wing markings. These are sometimes called dilute Clearwings." NOTE THIS comes from this SITE - here is the full article for reference http://www.budgerigar.com.au/clearwings.html
