Ive been looking on the internet and havent found one picture of an actual "rainbow budgie". Does anyone have a picture of one as i would greatly appreciate it

Meet Elmo

im waiting too

Please correct me if I'm wrong- but I thought "rainbow" was another name for a yellowface.

i think you are wrong.

A rainbow is a blend of different colours (i think) definately not just a yellow face

Oooh- someone is going to be in trouble for giving me wrong information! No one from here- don't worry

Oh, I think I get it now! Thanks budge!

thats okay - i just searched and searched in the past posts and found that rainbow had posted an example of one before

Elmo is a Yellowface cinnamon pied. Thought it had to have more than 2 colours to be a Rainbow?

Hi, sorry for the time I've been out of the forum, I lost my password, but now, I've recovery.

 

Rainbow budgerigars are my passion.

 

Take some photos, one is a bird of mine, and others are birds of a friend of mine:

They're so pretty!! Thanks for posting those Javi!!

What makes a rainbow budgie, What colours do you need to start with?

Clearwing, opaline, yellow face, in blue series.

 

Ooppss, the picture of the violet rainbow isn't avaliable, here is a new link.

 

The bird on the right (full coloured body greywing violet) is her father (and the mother was a rainbow in cobalt).

OMG my brain hurts :glare:

 

:book: i look and cant see the diff in a lot of these pics! budg's picture looked the same to me as the original post, and Javi's really made me need an asprin!

There preety.Hey i always thought it was yellowface2 whitewing opaline in blue. Thanks very much now i can go prove to my want to be know it all neighbor that his budgie isnt a rainbow at all i think that his isnt a type2 but a type1 yellowface but it is whitewing opaline. Well thanks alot

whitewing and clearwing are the same thing The whitewing is only used for blue birds and yellowwing for green birds. Clearwing can be used all over (which is why I think it should be the only term used)

 

Thanks for the pics javi and for finding the mistake with the link I really wanted to see that violet one.

Me too! Beautiful pictures, javi, and welcome back. I love your birds.

 

I don't mind the link to Rainbow, although he was pied, he also fit the definition of a "rainbow". Like Javi said, the definition of a rainbow is a yellowface opaline whitewing blue. Rainbow was a type two yellowface opaline whitewing blue pied. I think he was also a dilute. Hath had a link to a website that had lots of pictures of rainbows - maybe he will see this and post it again. I think it is difficult to get a "good" one. Most seem to have a grey wash to the wings instead of having them be truly clear. But they are definitely pretty birds no matter what.

 

PS - I love that picture of Elmo.
