Hi, I've always thought that this budgie Dom is a dominant pied, but I've confused myself reading about clearflight pieds and combination pieds. So I thought I'd check with all of you. She's moulting at the moment you can see one black tail feather coming through.

 

 

 

This photo is one of my budgies I know is a recessive pied I'm just putting her beak for comparison because they are the same orange colour.

 

She looks like opaline dom pied to me and split for blue but I am no expert on pieds
