What mutation is my Gould?

Just wondering what mutation Nico is...

He's got some interesting tints going on there. Will be interesting to see how he molts out next molt. Is this one of your chicks or did you buy him?
Looks like a blue ring around his head which would mean a SF Pastel AKA SF Yellow but his back is so yellow. If SF he should have a more lime green body color though it's not unheard of for those rare times that they are much more yellow then green in a SF. Is his chin color leaning gray or is it white?
So I'm gonna go with YH.PB.SF Pastel

I purchased him this past May from Brian (birdclaws). He actually just finished his molt. Brian had said he was a YB, but he does have some strange tints in his back feathers and a lavender rump. He is super sweet!!! Thanks for your input Debbie

Debbie, this is the other male I purchased from Brian @ the same time. He started molting a bit later than Nico and looks a bit like a porcupine. Sorry the lighting in the pic is so poor.

Can't wait to see them when they finish molting out. Is the Blue singing?

Congregations, on your two new boys, Ginene. The first one looks like a real cutie. Very interesting colours. Is the second one a blue, I really can't make it out from the picture, it's a little too dark.

debbie276...yes! He is singing! The yellow is displaying to my BCCB hen. I plan to get 2 Gould hens from Cindy in the future. lovezebs...yes! He has a salmon head, lavender breast and blue back. The pic is awful because I used my cell phone and the wall is yellow.

I say he is OH/PB/SFYellow back - maybe split blue?

I have a yellow back with blotchy color in his back and rump feathers and he is split to blue... now not always going to be true but he could be...

Mine turned out

RH/BH. LB/WB. SFYB/BB. so i have got ALOT of colors out of this guy....

Thanks for the info, josh1810. I bought both of my gouldians from Brian (birdclaws) on this forum. I should just message him for the info! Lol! I do hope to pair each of these boys with lovely hens in the future. The offspring will no doubt give me lots of information on their true mutations/splits.
