Hi can can somebody help me with my male yellow back.
One of my friends was over today and assures me that this guy is a single factor. I don't believe he is due to the white under his chin. I'm 90% sure he is a double factor yellow however now my friend has me second guessing my self. Can any body please shed a bit of light on this for me

The colors on my monitor make him look double factor to me. If he was single factor he would have a grey chin.
Beautiful bird, best of luck!

If he were SF with PB, then his back would be dilute...so yes, he is DF.

Yeah the single factors usually have that tinge of lime greeney yellow to their back. Also a very stunning bird Lori! He looks like he's a yellow head too, if I'm correct?

Absolutely double Yellow male. He can't be single factor, since he got Purple Breast and Yellow back.

I think what he means is if he was "SF Yellow," because he has a PB, his back would appear Lime-green/Greenish Yellow as opposed to pure yellow like Simon's male.
