My little guy has very dark, almost black feet.
Has anyone seen a Quaker with dark feet?
I did some research and came up, with genetics and sub species.
Just wondering if anyone else may have a black foot.

Budgerigar: Arrow, Esther, Kratos, Cora, Ducky.


Lovebird: Izzy, Gizmo.
it may just depend on the mutation, Izzy had dark dark grey legs and some lovebirds in the same cage as her had peach legs.
Also, my "normal" parakeet has dark grey legs while my recessive pied has peach legs.

Thanks for the replies. I didn't see a problem but others on different forums thought I should look into it. Today they look dark gray.
