Hey guys just wanting your opinions on my female bb. Does she look fat to you or is it the angle the photo is taken. The first photo is one i took 4 days ago and the second is one my dad sent me as I am away ATM

The photos came up the other way round... The tip one is where I'm worried she is getting fat

She looks like a beautiful big girl to me, not sure that it is fat though. Blow the feather aside on her belly and see if you see fat deposits. The fat will look creamy/yellow in color like chicken fat. I tried to find an image online to show you but wasn't able to, sorry.
good luck

She just looks like a nice big beautiful girl.

I don't think gouldians are very prone to being obese so it would be unusual for her to be fat.

She is beautiful! I read that you can tell if your bird is fat by feeling the breast bone. If you cannot feel it then your bird is fat. Also the skin under the breast feathers will be yellow in color. This is from the fat deposits. Hope this helps.
