Posted February 1, 201312 yr Hi, I recently bought this bird, I believe it is a male and a recessive pied, any corrections? Thanks!
February 2, 201312 yr I really don't know much about this, but he/she also looks maybe yellowface? And really I don't know about the reccessive pied. Very interesting and pretty bird! The experts will answer your questions better and correct me
February 2, 201312 yr Author Yeah, it is a yellow face, so pretty It has dark eyes with no iris ring, I think this means recessive pied?
February 8, 201312 yr Yes, he is a boy, and a recessive pied. He's also some sort of greywing. That may be harder to figure out, since he has so few markings, and I noticed his cheek patches are pied out. You won't be able to judge how pale or bright they are. But if his sky blue body color parts are very dark and bright, then he may be a clearwing or a full body greywing. If his blue areas are washed out looking, he may be a regular greywing or a dilute. (But from those photos, I think we can rule out dilute. ) Very gorgeous!
February 8, 201312 yr Author Thank you, I love him! He's still stuck in quarantine though so I don't get to see him pretty up my aviary for a few weeks yet, but I can't wait! Oh cool, it's so hard to see his markings that's why I was unsure if he was a resessive pied, but now I am excited that he is even more than that
