He is a grey spangle :D

 

I agree, and he is gorgeous!

He is beautiful, spangle is my favourite mutation, I'm on to my second spangle clutch for this year and I have a hen alot like yours who I hope will breed for me soon.

i thought he couldve possibly been a spangle :D i am so besotted with him, hes a big boy too compared to my other normal type budgies...thanks for the replies :D

He is lovely! :D

 

I agree, remember to keep him quarantined in a separate room of your house for 30 days and wash hands after holding him and tending to him etc. To me, i see some dark marks in the feathers above his cere, it might be just a shadow, but if not it could indicate illness... does his tail move when he breathes???

 

Dose he have a ring on his leg?? if he does you will be able to findout how old he is.

he has a black ring on his leg, which is this year right? hes got no dark patches on his cere just lots of white/grey fluffy feathers hehehe

He is beautiful! I would say he would be under 6 months if he has a black leg ring and also if you look his eyes are completley black (no iris) which indicates he is under 8 months(i think). Either way he is gorgeous and i am jealous!

That's great news. I was hoping those marks were just shadows :wub:

and yes, black leg ring is '08 and he is probably about 6-8 months old
