Hi, I've fallen in love with the SF blue gouldian colour as shown in this website
https://finchstuff.com/gouldianmutations

From my understanding this color only happens in cock birds ? I'm not sure if I'm correct .

If I want to breed some of this lovely colour what would make a good pairing? Thankyou

SF means Euro yellow blue and can be males or females though you can't get DF hens only males so all hens are SF. Work out the best breeding combination from the site above with the birds you have on hand or buy or swap what you have to get more pastel blues.

Don't be sorry. It's a learning curve with mutations, and we all get to go through it if we want to breed them. Enjoy your hobby.
