Would anyone know what colour/mutation offsprings can come out from a yellow budgie and a turquoise white black one? 🤔

Hi, Welcome to Talk Budgies!

The purpose of this forum is to promote the BEST PRACTICES in the care of budgies for their optimal Health and Well-Being

Avian Association of Veterinarians

Before breeding any species, it is important to learn as much about the animals, their personalities, and the best practices to follow for responsible and ethical breeding prior to making the commitment to take on the responsibility. This requires extensive research and an openness to continual learning.

Before we answer questions with regard to breeding or mutations, we need more information:

Why do you want to breed your birds?
How long have you owned budgies?
How old are the budgies you wish to breed?
Do you have any experience with breeding?
Are you certain the birds are not related?
What specific diet do you have them on at this time?
What are you planning to do with any offspring?
Do you have an Avian Vet?
Do you know how to properly hand feed a chick should something unforeseen happen?

Oh, I don't breed them, I am only expecting a baby from a breeder from this pair and was curious what colour it might be.

Hello and welcome to the forums!

Thanks for your reply and it’s great to have you here!

The clutch will have greens and blues, about half of them pied, and some blue will have yellow faces like their father. Since the father is opaline, which is a sex-linked gene, any females in the clutch will be opaline, so in fact you’ll be able to tell gender as soon as they start getting feathers so you can ask the breeder for photos earlier than usual and determine which chicks are males and which are female
Meanwhile, you’ve come to a great place to learn even more about the best of budgie care practices! Please be sure to have a look around the forums’ many budgie articles and “stickies”, included above, to ensure you’re up to date on everything. If you have questions after doing so, please be sure to ask as we’d love to help.

Best wishes! 👋

Thanks so so so much!! No matter what colour, it will be loved for sure but curiosity gets me. It's like being pregnant and curious if with a girl or a boy

This forum is really cool btw, had a look around yesterday and learned a lot about safe plants and trees. Awesome!

Have a magnificent day!!

Thank you for the additional information. I'm glad you are enjoying the forum so far!
I look forward to meeting your new budgie when you have him/her home and all settled in!
