That's what it is a MOSAIC...The name is given by geneticist to an unexpected and still not understood arrangement of color,pattern,and design.It may be patchwork,or crazy-quilt,design or the bird may be divided down the middle,each side of different color and pattern.The Mosaic violates the ordinary rules of inheritance of color and pattern.Dr.Hollander theorizes it is caused by two sperms instead of one entering the ovum. A mosaic will not breed mosaic's but can breed either or the colors that it shows. .GEORGE

I love this kind of thing. Very cool. I breed budgies and there is a very rare mutation that is also split down the middle that's blue on one side and green on the other. It's not supposed to happen and in budgies the mutation is called Half Sider.

Thanks everyone, she is quite amazing looking, the nest mate is the same as the mealy half and all the other youngsters from this pair have been one blue and one mealy. I will take pictures again when she is ready to wean, I think it is a little hen but time will tell, I was surprised at the mosaic color coming out, this is the first in 8 youngsters from the parents with this coloring, will post more in a week or so.
