Hey Everyone,

I was just wondering how would i be able to get a grey headed lady gouldians? What are the genetics behind the grey head on a gouldian?

Thanks in Advance

A grey head is technically a black head. Certain color mutations will express black as grey. A dilute is the perfect example of this.

The grey head occurs on SF Yellow Males that are BLACK head.

This includes

SF WB or LB Yellow Males
Pastels (PB SF Yellow Blue)
WB or LB SF Yellow Silvers (SF Yellow Blue)
