hello everyone,

 

i was at my friends house the other day, and i was observing her budgies =]

 

they were quite interesting, but one really took my eye

 

it was a light blue colour, but not the normal sky blue, it was a powder blue, really soft blue

like a pastel aby blue, not the usual vibrant skye blue

 

is this possible? if so what is it called?? i really like it

 

another thing to note is that it had cinnamon wings, would this affect the colouring of its plumage??

on the chest?

 

thanks in advance, Grant :hooray:

Yep cinnamon would dilute/lighten the colour of a skyblue budgie making it a very pastel blue like you saw.

As "Pie" says the fact the bird is cinnamon lightens the body colour.

A Dilute Sky Blue could also be considered 'pastel'.

yeah i was going to add that RIPbudgies. Did you happen to see the wing colour of this bird?

Already been said it was a cinnamonwing.

Ah yes your right Kaz. Teach me to read it properly next time.

thankyou all for your helpful information,

so i take it that the general rule is when a budgie has cinnamon wings its chest plumage will be diluted??

 

by the way it was a lovely bird, such a beautiful colour. i am going to try and steal it

or maybe i will just look for one =]

 

thankyou again
