Congrats Deb

Now to see if you can selectively breed out that bent beak fault that you seem to have developed

Violet budgies are my favourite mutation colour, especially in either yellow-faced or clearwing. Nice one.

Combine those 2 & you get one very pretty bird, & I could never breed enough of them when I had them. Would breed about 20-30 per season, & still couldn't keep up.

Haven't had budgies for over 15 years Di, but am being pestered to get some more. Clearwings, Harlequins & Bar-Pieds were the main colours I bred, & had a few good blood lines as well, although didn't have any of the really expensive ones, the dearest was a nice grey Scoble blood cock at $400.
P.S. I was given the cock, I wouldn't pay $400 for a budgie.
