Absolutely Scaley X Rainbow! The size, shape and colour. Note the beak colour of the one above compared to the dark beaks on the young ones below. The bird you have is not as young. If Musk was in it there would be red in the face and a smaller beak.

Another pic of the same cross.

I'm not sure why you're so proud of this Harvey, hybridising birds is a very serious matter which should be punishable by law in my opinion and that of many other dedicated aviculturalists..

saddest part is the youngins think its normal to hybridise birds ...the future of aviculture sure is going to be different .

Sadly ,the fascination and acceptance of the disgusting practice of hybridisation covers ALL age brackets! And not just parrot keepers either. Yes, Aviculture in the future is going to be a VERY different place :(
