Yellow headed white breasted pastel green? Or have I missed the mark entirely?

Looks like a hen Euro WB but could be an AY cock or hen. Is it white under the bill or grey. Craig

In a hen a SF pastel (euro YB) WB would be white in the throat - its only cocks which have grey - so it could be that or as Craig said AY is a possibility. It gets down to what bred it?

Hen is a white breasted and yellow headed. Has a normal green back.
Cock and more photos are below. It does appear to have a grey-ish throat

With that mating it is a SFEY hen with nice pintail. Sexlinked recessive Euro cock to a normal hen produces yellow hens, normal hens and he must be split for WB.
She is more white than blue grey under the bill though. Craig
