Since she is mainly all white I am having a very hard time getting any good pictures most are washed out

but she's a Violet Recessive pied Spangle and I've been told by 2 people she looks like a clear wing Her markings are VERY light, I didn't even Notice she was a Spangle(until Finnie pointed it out when she saw me at the bird fair with her) but her body color is not diluted (i know it looks light in the pictures but its not in person)

 

the 1st 8 pictures are from today and as good as they get - This girl BITES like there is no tomorrow she's not clipped and She is still terrified from being new

 

I got the other bird that's in the pics with her at the same bird fair Just a different vendor so they're not related (I know both are girls but if any one thought they were related to try to figure her mutation out lol)

 

and I know they're standard, Pet, American Type budgies and y'all deal in mainly Show type budgies - but the mutations are the same in both

 

and I wanted to post here because y'all seem to know your mutations a whole lot better than the other Forums I go to

 

but here's the link to their album in my photo bucket (first 8 pics are from today)

Looking at the pics it's possible........ or maybe greywing but virtually impossible to tell from a visual point of view.

Need pix to be clearer and closer but it is looking like a Recessive Pied Spangle Opaline.

I can't see anything that suggests clearwing. It looks like a spangle recessive pied. Frosting on the rump is quite common with spangles

okay how are y'all getting Opaline? LOL

 

that's one thing I don't see? but maybe it's because she's Recessive pied and that's why I can't tell. I usually can tell by the head bars. the Opaline's head bars always look way different than a Normals (to me they look like wrinkly skin )

 

her Markings are very light too so that doesn't help matters any

 

but I sure hope she's not a grey wing I got enough of those and I'm trying to get away from them for a while But some how I manage to keep getting more and not even realizing it

 

and what's frosting?

Hee, hee, if her being greywing bothers you, I'll glady take her off your hands...

:lol:

 

I'm going to put her with a non grey wing that way I don't get any visuals just splits

 

or at least that is my plan LOL
