Tiffany - I have some male goulds with the yellow tipped beak but the heads are charcoal, or light grey. The females of the group have the black heads (one is speckled black and grey). Why are the males heads grey and not just solid black? The hen(mom) is yellow pb bh and the male (dad) is normal green back orange head.
Thanks

Sorry to go back to the first message but: LAVENDER WAXBILLS?!!!!

I am so jealous. They are very hard to come by in the UK.
