Double factor would visually be the same as single factor.

grey is a blue series bird thats why they call it grey blue it visually looks grey and if you breed 2 single factor grey blue birds you will get grey blue babies and blue babies also a grey green bird is not a blue series bird and will visually be green with grey flight and tail feathers in most color birds you cannot visually tell the difference between single and double factors you just have to find out by breeding them but violet birds for reasons unknown to me you can visually tell the difference even when they are just starting to get their first feathers the double factor is a good bit darker hope this helps also what's the name of the book you are getting ? thanks mike

Some like it more than others.

Some like to be misted.

Some like to get right down in the water.

Start a bathing routine early.

Find what he likes and will tolerate and do it often.

Without proper bathing habits parrots will develop feather problems.

I take my birds in the shower with me. It is a good way to get them good and wet and they really enjoy the bonding time.

Most birds would bathe every day if you let them. So shower you bird often.
