I went to the local aviary on Sunday to get a hen for my recessive green cock. 
There weren't any I really fancied, so I bought two others.
Sorry I don't have a digital camera.
That would make it soooo much easier to just show you.
One, the hen, is cobalt blue on her body, back and the back of her head, with a white cap and neck, and white tail and wings with a lacey pattern on it. Like a pearl looks like in a cockatiel. She is only about four months old. Is she called a spangle clearwing cobalt?
The cock is really pretty. I know he's a lacewing. His body is the palest blue I've ever seen. He has a white head and under his tail, with dark eyes. There is no white circle around them. His wings have a pale grey lacey pattern through them.
Can anyone tell me what the right name for these are?
Also, what colours and types would I get if I bred them together? I hope I've made myself understood.
