Good for you! She's beautiful. I adore Java Rice Birds. As soon as I can find the time I want to hand raise a few to make pets out of them. Enjoy!

Enjoy them. I really liked watching mine when I had them. I love the white.

thanks everyone, My male is now trying to entice the female into the nest box, he always sleeps there. I know his parents appeared to be normal gray, It will be interesting to see what their offspring will look like
