It's a small quarantine cage. And I was thinking about a crib, but I didn't want to extract all the bars. And of course blue! I'm trusting my gut he's a boy.

Actually those are sunflower seeds. There's only one poop in there. I need to scrub it out.

Well while you weren't looking he must have stepped in a new one because I see some poo traces on the grate lol
Hey I am not criticising the cleanliness! I just found funny the way he was perfectly at home in someone else's crib

Oh no, I wasn't saying that. They're dumpsters. I clean up after them constantly. And he learned from Beck to trash the nearest home that isn't yours. Darn boys.

He is a gorgeous lacewing.

He is incredibly beautiful! He is not an english budgie, right? their faces are completely different and I prefer this type of face a lot more.

Nope. He's all American.

He's gorgeous and I LOVE the purplish color. I suppose the violet factor is involved somehow but there are so many factors that influence this coloring that I don't know what else is going on. Here are a couple of links showing various combinations with the violet factor:

I'm not sure this baby is really a lacewing though. Lacewing is the name that some species give to a cinnamon lutino, and this baby is obviously not a lutino. There are other mutations that can cause pale wing markings, and I think he might be a greywing or dilute.

I think he's too pale to be a greywing.
