A Mauve paired to a Blue will give you all Cobalt babies.
It doesn't matter what sex the Mauve is.

If you could get a Pallid Blue Cock to pair with a Mauve Hen, that would be fantastic.
You'd get Cobalt/Pallid Cocks and Pallid Cobalt Hens

Nothing to worry about it.
Peanut is a Turquoise Grey. The Turquoise gene causes a green wash.
There is generally a small amount of green on them but once they have their first 2 moults, a lot more green will come in.
It usually only comes in on the wings, mantle, and head.

Green/Lutino means the babies will be visually Green but Split to Lutino. So they will carry the Lutino gene.

So all Cocks will be visually Green but split to Lutino (Green/Ino)
And all Hens will be visually Lutino.

Really? Green Cheeks are only going for around $100 each these days.
At that price, I would say they would have been Sun or Janday Conures?

I usually clip the wings about a week after they first start flying. Or until they are good at landing.
