Ive asked this on a couple of other forums but no one seems to know for sure (altho i do think Maya has come the closest :D ) He/she is 9 weeks old (i know still young). The breeder told me that his/her face would eventually turn white or lighter, and that he might get a peach spot on his head. Heres several pics of him. The last one is the one the breeder sent me of his parents. His mother is the yellow one far left, and the father is the one next to her. I just want to know what i would say if someone were to ask me "what kind of lovie is that?" :blush:

very cute. is he gray and violet? you know how cameras don't always capture the colors we see? i swear, sometimes my birds end up looking much more brighter after the flash comes on.

Hes got several colors in there mixed. His rump is more of a blue/violet and yes the top of him is grey. His face is light grey/grey

The photos are cute but not good for determining color mutation. My first inclination would be double dark factor whiteface violet but it's hard to be sure because of the lighting in the photos.
