Hi everyone I am a new bird mom and have purchased a beautiful girl (presume) caique.
She was advertised as a BHC but after doing a bit of research I'm unsure as she hasn't got a black beak and her head is not fully black and her chest is not as white. I understand all birds are not the same but could she possibly be a hybrid mix between a BHC and a WBC.
She is only 6 months old.

Any advice appreciated thank you

I would say the bird is a hybrid....

and I wonder if she might be related to this (slightly older) caique
