i would never pair albino with blue gary, the sheen shows through the body feathers.try a good big dirty headed opaline grey.

Well i'l be dammed lol, can you explain the visual difference from albino then? (Bill M. defo says it was a albino) and if it is a df spangle then will it matter what colour i pair to? :)

I didn't think she was albino-her eyes are not red.That's the only way I can tell anyway.

red eyes is the tell tale sign
pair her to any normal bird green or blue chances are youll get both colours plus theyll be spangles :)

thanks

the d/f spangles mask can be seen better than the albinos,the eyes,cere(in the male) and feet and legs all differ
