I'd vote for olive, too.

Violet budgies may have violet in their tail feathers (the short ones primarily, not long ones!), although I don't know how this would show up on a green bird. I've been told this isn't accurate way to define a violet, so can't say for sure. I haven't had enough to determine one way or the other... just something I've noticed.


As an example.... blue budgie

vs Dominant pied violet factor blue (aka "white bird") - she had both blue and violet patches

All I know is...

Y'all gave me budgie fever! I want about 25, all colors! No, it's not do-able for me, but... I just love these little guys!
