I know for a fact her boyfriend, Ramsey, didnt do this - hes very gentle with her so im assuming she got caught on...
If it helps her mother was solid black and her father was wheaten (not my birds but i did meet them!)
And thank you so much 🫶 I was hoping he'd be exchequer. What kind of babies should I expect from this pair?
