How did I go???

Yup, the female is a Cobalt Spangle and the male is probably a Cobalt Violet normal. Hard to tell what shade of blue they are in pics, so yes you are correct. :question:

The female could be violet sky.... definitely looks to have violet there....

i agree, the second one is looks like a normal violet, and the hen, well ill take a punt as to say its a sky blue spangle.

Thanks heaps everyone :blush: ......my goodness... looking at that picture again I think I need to send Skipper to Weight Watchers!!!! :wacko:

both are beautiful. I agree he is a violet, i would say she is only a cobalt.

Second one is a gorgeous colour. Looks like a normal violet cobalt, possibly double factor violet.

 

The spangle hen is kinda tricky. First picture looks cobalt, second picture looks violet sky blue lol.

Thanks All....

 

Man.......... I need to do some more work on colours!!! I was saying to hubby I wanted a violet....not realizing......I've already got one....... :D !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Okay from what i can see with the hen, is she has spangle marking's on her wing and she looks to me like a sky blue cobalt.....so my guess is she is a sky blue cobalt spangle. (i may be wrong)

 

the male, to me looks like a ordinary violet, although like SJW said it could be violet sky...

Thanks all.....

 

It's a shame that Sparkey too young for this breeding season - he has paired up with Droopy LooLoo....wonder what that would give me.....

 

I think Droopy is a DEC as I'm pretty sure she has no iris ring....as yet..

There is skyblue and there is cobalt. There is no skyblue cobalt.

that's what i meant kaz, i know their's no skyblue-cobalt ....but both of which are in the bird... as well as the spangle marking's on the wing's.
