Blue female

Is there any way to determine if a blue female gouldian is red head or orange head?

Not unless you know the genetic background or do test breeding

When I read the subject line 'Blue Female', I thought it was a new Crystal Gayle song. Maybe it still could be!

Ditto to what Debbie said. Did you get a blue back female?? Or just wondering.

If the chicks are Red Head then the hen is a RH. If the chicks are Yellow Head then she is a YH.
Beautiful pair, best of luck
