Hi all  Here is a picture of Georgia- one of my birds bred last year. She will be 1 on the 21st of May. Both her parents were english, and her Dad was quite big. I'm no expert, but I think she has good markings and size (she is longer then in the photo). Do you think she is show quality?  From back (when bent over)   Front You can see she still has pin feathers coming in on her head. May suggest that her head blow will get bigger? Nicola |

She is very beautiful and definitely a show budgie As for as the competitions are concerned, there is a certain criteria which needs to be fulfilled. For example flecking is not allowed and penalized by the judge. These are the markings on the head where pin feathers are. Barrie can tell you more about the quality of this budgie. PM him to check this thread. |

Thanks BB. So the marking on her head is flecking? Is there anyway to get rid of them?
