I have a green male orange head purple chest and a yellow female white head lavender chest.
Thanks

Let me try have a go. Practice is good. Well if I understand it correctly you have a:
Yellow head (orange) Purple breasted green body male
Black head Lilac breasted Yellow hen

according to the gouldian forecaster your offspring would be:
50% Red/Black/Yellow head Purple/Lilac breast yellow Single factor (dilute) males *visually RH PB dilute green
50% Red/Yellow head Purple/lilac breast Green backed hens *visually RH PB GB
That is if they are not split for anything etc.

Await the thoughts of those with more Gouldian experience.

here is the link to the online forecaster if you don't have it already.

go to one of the genetic forecasters.

(your white headed hen is actually black headed
by lavender chest I assume you mean purple as females are lighter purple than males

this forecaster says you can get:

red head/black head/yellow head purple breast dilute (light green) males. (He will be red head visually, but genetically also hiding the black & yellow head gene)
and
red head purple breast green females

providing neither bird is split to anything else... this is always the interesting part of breeding gouldians when the lineage is unknown.. you get to be surprised...

Red Head split to Yellow Head, Purple Breast, Normal body

Thanks a bunch for your posts...

I agree with everybody. If they are not split to anything you will get a very simple answer, but if they are split and the hen is lilac you could get almost anything.
