I knew Cosmo would turn greener with his first moult and sure enough there seem to be some green feathers coming through just below his face!

 

I know what the sky YF2 look like when they become that seafoam colour, but I'm having a bit more trouble picturing what cobalt YF2 look like? Does it just look like a green budgie with bits of blue around the edges?

 

If anyone has any photos of cobalt YF2 budgies with their adult feathers I would be very interested to see

 

and on the right

nice. Look forward to seeing Cosmo when he has finished moulting

Thanks Kaz! She is beautiful.

 

JB - haha he looks really funny at the moment. He has one really big throat spot and the rest are all still small. Very patchy and spiky all over. Very adolescent-like.

I tried to get a photo of what Cosmo looks like at the moment. Unfortunately he was in such a preening mood that it was almost impossible to get a clear shot of him, but this one is the most accurate in terms of colour, even though it's a bit blurry.

 

you're right it looks funny. :rofl:

Haha... you can see the unevenness of his yellow cap too
