Hi Shhab You have some very beautiful budgies here. This budgie appears to be Opaline Spangle Light Green.

Dominant Pied Opaline Spangle Grey. Can you describe the parents of this budgie and what they split for?

This budgie appears to be Recessive Pied. It can be a Combination Pied but for that I need to know the family history.

The body color is diluted to half the strength of normal. Feet and legs are grey. Check patches are grey as well. I can't see the tail. I think it is a Greywing Sky Blue.

In the first pictures it appears like Yellow Face Mutant 1. In the second picture, the spread of yellow is seen in the body and it appears to be Yellow Face Mutant 2. The markings are grey and the tail is greyish blue. So I think it is Yellow Face Opaline Greywing Cobalt.

Picture 1 – Opaline spangle light green
Picture 2 & 3 – Dominant pied greywing grey
Picture 4 – Greywing sky blue
Picture 5 & 6 – Mutant type 1 yellow face opaline greywing sky blue (could be full body greywing or a very dark clearwing) It is possible that the yellow face type is double factor mutant type 2 but the yellow is not as bright as would be normally expected in DF M2
Picture 7 & 8 – Opaline cinnamon greywing light green
Picture 9 – Type 2 yellow face greywing
Picture 10 – Either a double factor dominant pied or a combination of two pied types. It is a type 2 yellow face. It is not just recessive pied
Picture 11 - Mutant type 1 yellow face opaline greywing sky blue

Hi Nev It always interesting to know your view on the mutations. Just a quick question. You labeled picture 1 as Opaline spangle light green And picture 8 as Opaline cinnamon greywing light green. Can you tell why as both appear to have the same mutation

Hi Nev It always interesting to know your view on the mutations. Just a quick question. You labeled picture 1 as Opaline spangle light green And picture 8 as Opaline cinnamon greywing light green. Can you tell why as both appear to have the same mutation When you see both photos together they certainly do look alike! They could almost be the same bird The 1st picture is not really good enough to be sure about the mutation but I thought it was an opaline spangle because I couldn't see any barring on the wing & tail feathers. Most spangles have very thin markings but often these are not visible if the bird is also opaline. Usually a spangle will have some white in the cheek patches but taking a second look I can't see any on this bird. Also taking a second look at the flight feathers I feel much less inclined to think it is spangle. I really need a better picture of this bird to be sure of the mutation No 8 picture is clearly not a spangle. If you look at the markings you can see that they are very pale in colour but they are the normal width for an opaline. I thought that both greywing and cinnamon were present because this bird looks very similar to many that I have bred with both mutations

It's another example that how different pictures can give different results. I also think both these pictures are of the same bird. Can you confirm that Shhab?
