At Hezz's suggestion, I'm introducing you to my beautiful babies. Drift Spangle cinnamon violet hen Splash Cobalt cock They're both pet type and 5 this year. Splash is partially tame, he'll step up in the cage and can be let out for small periods, Drift is never going to be tame. I keep trying, but they're in a huge ferplast cage that she can flap around to get away. I had once hoped to breed them, and tried it too. But while Splash was keen enough, Drift would have none of it. So that knocked that plan on the head. Other than that? Splash is a dear, my happy little sweetheart that sings to his hearts content, Drift is bossy, bolshie and beautiful, and I wouldn't trade them for the world. I'm not sure if that picture shows it, but Drift has a lazy wing (or so I call it) and both are looking a little ruffled because my room is a little chilly at the moment with the heating off. I bought them both together from a breeder in my area, they hate their greens and refuse to bath, and they're perfect ;D

They are very beautiful. I love the Spangle Sometimes they are just like kids and don't eat their greens

She's a beautiful, grumpy baby. I could never get close to her, but I'm content to just admire her.
Exactly like kids. "What's this? Lettuce? Lettuce! Rabbit food!! I shall shred it! Raaar!"

Lovely looking birds - their characters sound similar to my Frankie (F) and Benny (M).
