I welcome Tango into our 'flock'! :dance4:


(He's the white pied the other is the little green energy ball BeeBop) They are getting along really well and having supervised time in the same cage. Tango is a sweetheart. We saw him and knew he was perfect for our flock.

I recently added 2 budgies to my flock - like reading about budgies and seeing pics! This is a boy?

Also, is anybody good with budgie mutations? From some research I think Tango is a recessive pied? Does that sound right?

I can't be 100% sure but evidence suggests yes. :)
I took a budgie home ( found at work ) this one is a boy. Bought him a friend -hopefully a boy by looking at the cere. Any other "evidence" to suggest a boy? Vocalizations, behavior?

Yes he was very vocal when we first got him. Also BeeBop seems to be more affectionate towards me, I'm not sure if that's competion or what haha?

His cere in the first pic definitely shows that he is a boy! Not a recessive pied though, looks like a Double Factor Dominant Pied

Your right, that does seem more like it. Anyone else think so too?

Update: Someone on IG thinks he might be a recessive pied opaline? Idk though, he has very scarce amount of wing feathers and blue, def not as much as the pictures showed for that mutation.
