Help Identifying Color?

Featured Replies

Posted

Hello,

 

I'm hoping someone could help me identify what color and mutation my budgie here is... but Im really confused on her color. Is she a blue dilute .. is a grey dilute possible? The grey body color and grey markings throw me off so Im not sure how to label her.. If anyone could help me, I'd really appreciate it!

 

Heres a picture of her as a baby:

looks grey to me, the rump is a good indicator and from the photo it looks to be grey so I would say a grey dilute

I agree with splat on the dilute idea but from the photo it looks like it has clear flights which suggests another variety as well. I am no expert on clearflights etc. Anybody?

Well thanks guys! I absolutely fell in love with her when I first saw her and haddd to buy her =]

 

Well at first I thought she was a Dom Pied because she does have a little Dom patch on top of her head, but she doesnt have a band across her belly so I wasnt sure...But now that you mention the clearflight, I did a search and it says they can have a clear patch behind their head, so its a possibility I think.
