What mutation is this?

Post by Rueae »

Is this a normal grey?
The flight feathers seem off to me.

can you add more pictures plz ?

Do you know the parents ?
-as a grey bird is breed from a grey-green and blue mutation and also from grey and blue mutations.

It looks like n normal grey bird as the wing and central tail feathers are black.
There are some variation in body color with some birds as some appear darker than the other.

Hi Rueae

I also noticed in the picture that all the birds (in front and the back) are looking for something on the ground.

Do you know what they are looking for ?

I'm not sure what they are looking at, but I believe they are looking out of the side of the cage. As the floor is kind of to the right in the first picture taken.

I got another one.

It's just the flight feathers that seem off to me and the darker shading on the curve of the wing.
Or are all greys like this and I just never noticed?

Additional information:
It is about two years old now and supposed female because it hasn't ringed out.

Bernard the Photo is on its side so the birds are actually on the side of the cage and not the floor. I know what you mean it looks like they are looking to the ground.
Looks like a normal Grey to me, mine are the same with the dark, almost black flight feathers.
