Cheers Marianne! You are a star! However I am still confused! ;D Does it mean that a sky blue is more "neon" coloured? I always thought it was the lightness of the shade but then that is "Factors"......isn't it?  |

The names of those basic colours as they apply to budgies are the same as normal colour names. Cobalt is the darker deeper blue - like the cobalt pigment used to make the colour. Sky blue is, err, like the sky. ;D |

As Stace said. Sky blue is lighter (think a summer sky) and Cobalt is darker |

Trouble is if you photo a cobalt with a flash it can look like a sky blue |
