Is This Correct?

I finally filled my aviary with 6 new budgies and I want to try my hand at guessing their mutations.

 

I believe this is a type 1 yellow face, opaline greywing. She may be a dilute.

This budgie, Chops, has me confused. He is a lightgreen male, cinnamon wing I think.

I hope I am close! :o

Second one isn't cinnamon, looks more greywing.

throat spots look cinnamon not grey so i think you are correct, shots with the tail can help.

Looks grey from here but then my computer isn't very accurate.

Your computer is fine. My camera is not accurate. I just realized that the first one is a yellow face 2, not yellow face 1 which my camera shows. I noticed that today when I was standing next to her.

 

In person, the second one's markings are a shade of brown.

 

Here is his tail:

Looks grey from here too:

The depth of his wing color is greatly different than my other greywing. Granted, they are not the same mutation. If the overall consensus is greywing, I will accept that. ;)

The first bird is a single factor Yellowface Mutant II Opaline Clearwing.

 

Second bird is Greywing by the looks of it. If Cinnamon I would expect the feet to be more pinkish. Greywing markings on a green bird can sometimes produce an illusion of brown markings caused by the presence of yellow pigment.
