We'd need better photos to take a guess, also from the front, side and back.

Took some more pics, will upload here in just a bit. Today they are more gung-ho than the other day, so I got quite a few good ones. (***added pics to the first post ^^^) please ignore the pellets all over the bottom, they are naughty buds who throw off the pellets and eat mostly the seeds, I am in the process of changing them from an all seed diet...but the good news is that they sometimes eat the pellets!!I changed the newspaper this morning and it is already filthy  |

I think Opal is an opaline sky blue or cobalt spangle. There's likely a diluting factor there as well.
Does Star have red or plum coloured eyes? I am thinking she is a creamino.

Hezz her eyes look like deep black ink wells to me. Is this because she is a baby? I also noticed her face is more "yellow" than her body?

I noticed that as well, it's common among the creamino, which is one of the reasons that I thought that. Any chance her eyes might be plum? I think plum is rather harder to discern than the more obvious red of the albinos. I have seen many writings that say they are best seen as newborns .... shrug .....

Maybe, I cant really tell in the light of day, but maybe when she trusts me more I can get a better look.
Thank you so much, now we know what kinds they are. My husband was tickled that Opal is an "Opaline". 😁

HezzCan creaminos have splotches of other colors on their bellies? Star has some greyish spots on her tummy but it is hard to get a picture.

That's a bit beyond me, I'm sorry, jujubiiird.  Some budgies do get a suffusion of colour through their feathers but that is more of a general thing rather than splotches, as I understand. I really can't give you an answer on that one - I don't have the knowledge. |
