Gascoigne appears to be a SF Type 1 Yellowface Mauve Normal.1) what type of yellowface is Gascoigne? he seems like a single factor 1 or a double factor 2 to me. (the yellow on his face is really pale but he also has yellow on the feathers of the wings, but not on the main body.)
2) Has Lilly violet factor? and if so, is it single or double? also is she skyblue or cobalt? she looks like a skyblue,opaline, spangle with violet factor and maybe clearlflight
thank you very much for your help! are you sure Gascoigne is mauve? because in the naked eye his body looks clear grey and his tail is black and not navyGascoigne appears to be a SF Type 1 Yellowface Mauve Normal.
Lily looks like a Sky in some photos and a Cobalt in others. To me that suggests SF Violet Sky which is a non-visual violet, but lovely nonetheless. So my call for her is SF Violet Sky Blue Opaline Spangle. No indication of clearlflght.
On my monitor his cheek patches appear violet. Is that not the case? For a grey, the cheek patches would be silver-blue.thank you very much for your help! are you sure Gascoigne is mauve? because in the naked eye his body looks clear grey and his tail is black and not navy
oh i see... the cheek patches look plain black to me.On my monitor his cheek patches appear violet. Is that not the case? For a grey, the cheek patches would be silver-blue.
Ah. Well, what I suspect is going on is that the yellow overlay of SF yellowface is darkening his violet patches and navy tail to black.oh i see... the cheek patches look plain black to me.

Thank you for the useful informations, i will study thourghly the articles ❤ The cage they are in is the biggest we could find the time we got them, it's dimensions are 39x32x26 cm, it doesn't seem that spacious, but we open the cage and let them out everyday, so most of the time they are outside of the cage. Do you think we should get another one?Welcome to Talk Budgies.

Rearranging their cage frequently will help tremendously.
Please be sure you never put a nest box or anything that could be used as a nesting site in their cage.
When they come into condition, you need to limit the light they get to 8 hours a day and limit the amount of protein in their diet.
