"If it has a broad stripe on top of its head, it is fully pearled. It CANNOT be Royal Purple, Chocolate, Buff, Bronze, Coral Blue, Opaline, or any of the attenuated colors."
So, um...Mochie's not a chocolate. Hmm.

Well you’ll see their adult feathers soon enough! They are gorgeous though!!! If you paired early keet pics with the juvenile pics that might help. I know my RPs and chocolate birds went through a juvenile stage where they seemed to have dotted feathers. As those were replaced with their adult feathers, it confirmed the semi-pearling I’d seen by their wavy young keet head stripes.

Mochie is in the middle, wavy lines, we all thought chocolate-r2 said male bc of the lightness.
I don't think I knew abt losing their dots. Bella was the opposite, she dotted up like a red head does freckles, but had few at that age.
And that's LD next to Mochie. You can see the tan stripes on his head, and then there was a patch of tan on his fanny-slightly lighter than described by GF site, but it matched. I think they get together and trade off characteristics, just to see the crazy lady squirm.
