It all depends on what kind of chicks you'd like from him and his new partner?

No, that bird is too light a yellow to be a green series bird. It is exactly like a Yf DF spangle looks.

He is a yf2 cobalt spangle by the looks of things, Lovely bird. You have two normal blues, either cobalt or violet, a yf2 DF spangle and a normal white DF spangle. The mother would've had to of been a spangle to get DF spangles. And I'm guessing she was blue series, as there's no green series chicks.

Hope everything goes to plan maesie!!! Thinking of you, your family and your gran!!! xxx

Where which opaline??? I used to join there forum, but found "Barry Shutt the fark up" as we like to call him far too annoying haha

Wow, a female who doesn't wear the pants haha Joking!

My instincts say it's a hen... A - it's cinnamon so there's a greater chance of it being a hen. B - It's cere colour looks opaque and white with a tinge of blue, like young hens get. Although that's not a definate... A better picture in the morning without flash would be good Pretty bird by the way

Not sure on worms specifically, but it does show through strongly when they're sick. Has Bing been wormed since he came to you? and was he bred from an aviary situation with soil?

Some say it is a sign of sickness or stress, but I find even in my healthy resting birds they have a slight pulse going through their tails anyway...Keep an eye on him and look out for other signs i'd say...

It's a hen and yes it's yellow face could get darker

Sorry to hear that maesie I hope she recovers enough to have a comfortable rest of her life at home :sad:

Gorgeous, but that's not a creamino it has throat spots... be even more proud for bring a LACEWING into the world :sad:

I have no idea what it is.. although it's stunning! and yes, some kind of opaline

Could she perhaps have been eggbound for those two days then managed to pass the egg?

Oh wow that's a lovely improvement!

I agree with absoloutly everything Liv says

A bird supplier should stock it. Also your local hardware store. There's all different kinds... depends which you're after

Both boys and agree, normal grey and Lutino

It's been cold over here at the moment also... I have three nests of chicks at the moment with 15 young and about 5 out of 7 cabinets with eggs, others yet to lay

Sounds like she's just gone out of "condition" her cere will turn back brown in time. The loss of feathers was probably their pre-winter moult... btoh birds soound healthy

Sounds like you're doing everything right You may not even need to worry about a branch yet as they only look at the 4 week old stage... They'll get there in time

I don't think you have two boys and one girl... Can you get any better pictures of them individually, front on without flash???

Gutted!!!!!

C'mon WA!!! pick up the pace
