I had 5 young gouldian fledge today, 3 that appear to be yellows ans 2 normal.
Their parents are BH PB N cock and BH PB SF hen. Am I right in assuming that the yellows will be BH PB SF cocks and the normals will be BH PB N hens ?
I have enclosed pictures of 2 of the young.

Its a program that once you enter the details of the birds you have paired up it tells you what to expect with their young, I use it all the time, I like this one as you dont have to be online.
If you email Carlos Matos @
C_Matos@Bigfoot.com
he should send you a working link where you can download the forecaster and a code.
There is also this one
