Could it be the dove equivalent of a fallow budgie?

It looks the same as what I have here - the yanks call it "brilliant".

I have about 10 of these. I emailed some photos to a guy who breeds lots of mutations and he told me that they are called brilliants and Aluminium Opals (from Opaline).
They are really nice mutation, I have some birds with very heavy white markings. I had no idea what they were when I got them, I thought that they might even be a silver pied.

Very nice. But technically Opaline have normal eyes and colouring and Fallows have red eyes and inoish colouring. Otherwise they are much the same patterning, so this could be a case of misnaming by people who do not know the differance. Common as we know from the number of cinnamon/fawn misnamings.

Do you have any of the Brilliants for sale?
