Hi Daz, I have just sent you an email, but I just wanted to say on this forum that I am sure your expertize has helped many people with their budgies. I know you have helped me. Thank you. Are your breeding budgies days over now? :-(

Your blue budgie is definitely opaline amoungst other things and the pied is a spangle.

I am going to have to say Nadene's photo - she looks so adorable sleeping ! :-)

Sorry I can't help you maz7, but the internet might offer a few suggestions. I thought you might also be interested to see this if you haven't come across it yet. http://forums.budgiebreeders.asn.au/index.php?showtopic=25603 I sure was! All the best with your budgies.

It might be the perch. It looks very smooth and skinny. Try changing the perch and see what happens. At first glance I thought she was a she due to the white area around the nostrils. Have you thought of a name for her yet? Maybe 'Twitchy' ! :lightbulb:

APR It looks like my budgie Violet is trying to hide from yet another photo shoot. I can just imagine her thinking to herself, "Not another one!" Can we ask people to resubmit a photo that was from an earlier month ( that didn't win previously) if we like it ?

Oh maz7! I am so sorry to hear of the sad outcome of Powderpuff"s health :sadsorry: . It was great to hear you were able to be with her till the pass away.

A hen - white and brownish appearance around the nostrils.

Thanks robyn.

Anyone?

Ooops..here's the photo that was posted of Violet Her face spots are ever so light grey now. They look full colour too. What type yellow face is she? And Snowflake - dominant pied?

Here is a good photo of Snowflake without the flash. It shows head spot and cheek colour well. Do you see most of the wing feathers look full. The next photo is with the flash to show spots on face do not look spangle. I would love someone else in the expert arena to answer me only on looks and give me reasons why. I don't have any heritage on them so I am only after a rough guess.

Budgie Hammocks! I am going to have to look this up now to see what they are about! Surely not! Are they meant to be some sort of nest?! From what I quickly saw on the internet, the hammock idea is not catching on anyway. Anyone with enough sense will see they are dangerrrrousss to any budgie. Sorry for the strong words but seriously!

Yes. Thanks. The male green budgie you said you just purchased is a greywing.

Thanks L__J. Anyone else have an opinion on what mutations please? Any ideas on babies?
