What has been your experience with different Gouldian colors and mutations and their overall health and hardiness? Do you see a difference and if so, what has been your experience?
Gouldians, RC Cordon Bleu's, and a 9 year old zebra finch.

No difference at all!
I have had green backs and now yellows.
If they are healthy, it makes no matter of the color.
