Hi everybody,

I was just wondering what your favourite budgie mutation is im sure everyone has a different opinion i just thought it would be interesting to see. My favourite is the mauve or light violet i think they are beautiful. Also if anyone could tell me how you get mauves (light violet) i have been told a few different ways and im confused if anyone wants to shed some light on the subject it would be much appreciated. Thanks

Anything yellow face or goldenface for me! My latest desire is a Cremino (yellow faced albino essentially)

I love them all ...cannot choose just one type...

for me...its recessive pieds

dominant pieds

and Yellowface blues and greys.

 

:)

Hey Kaz are the YF Greys hard to come by? I hadn't seen any until the other day when I fought the urge t buy one at a pet shop.

I agree with Kaz with so many beautiful ones but I do tend to lean toward the yellowface with not as much wash through the body .

YES they can be hard to find...I paid a small fortune for a YF grey spangle recently....hope I get some chicks from him

This one was about $35, would it be worth getting at that price?

If you like the look and the age is right then YES I would if I was you.

Cool, thanks Kaz.

 

I'll stop hijacking now

I love the yellow faces too.

 

Lady (YF grey Spangle) cost me $20 - she is my favorite type at the moment

 

 

I also love YF opalines - My Pheobe is a lovely YF opaline and i am really hoping to get some YF violet Opalines from her one day.

 

My total favorite is.........YF violet cinnamon opaline

She is a beauty when shes ready she will give you some beautiful babies !

I have always liked Dominate Pieds

But this time around I'd like to breed some nice show normal greens.

And I also like Opaline greens

I like Opaline Texas Clearbodies [yellow] I'm partial to most Yellow Bodied birds with darker wing patterns, like TCB, Fallows, Darkwing Yellows, Cinnamon wing Yellows…I always like Opalines & Cinnamon wings [a Cinnamon Sky Blue I think is a real nice bird]. Also I think an Opaline Spangle is a nice bird. So many nice colours.

 

A pair of my young TCB's 2007 rung...brother & sister, the cock is the more desired colouring.

The cocks wing pattern...would be better I think if had more even black through the wing.

The hens wing pattern, I thought she might have been a Cinnamon, but the breeder I bought her parents from said that's the correct colour of wing for TCB.

A Green Fallow [Yellow] with the wing marking I like.

Hard to say, as I like so many.

 

I love spangles over normal wing patterns.

 

If I am truly honest, I love birds with big personalities. I like the troublemakers, the mischief makers, the affectionate. that is the my favourite bit.

If I had to chose then its the Spangle.
