Hi All I this lovely little girl and I am wanting to breed pieds with her what male would I need to put her with to get the most chance of getting them, I do have this lovely boy would he be a good choice thanks :rofl: Vendetta 100_6492.jpgand her prospective mate Rastas Watermelon 100_6489.jpghe does have a light blue nose but there he looks like a female any one to claraify ?

Im unsure about the first bird, but they are both recessive pieds. You can confirm this if the first bird has full black eyes (without the white iris ring) In no way possible you can get dominant pieds fromn this paring. Unless you have any other pieds maybe we can see by photos and if you do well ffind the best pairing :rofl:

Recessive pied males do not have blue ceres.

thank you for that the first one also has black eyes so back to the drawing board I am afraidthanks kaz well that clears that up he does have the tiniest tinge of blue on his cere which is why I was leaning towards male I have owned him for 2 years and he has never been interested in any of the others which is why I was not 100 percent sure about him ever and there was also the albino that use to throw me until you all helped me clear that up so a BIG thank you again :rofl:
