Top right! He looked all gray and white except a tiny smidge of blue feathering around his cere.

I actually went in to find a book and saw that little dude and he was adorable! He did wake up eventually when I walked back by but they looked cross at me for snapping pictures even though I made sure the flash was off so I didn't take any more. He was super active hanging from the top of the cage and chattering up a storm when I left had to get out while I still had willpower.

I'm glad our cage hasn't arrived yet or I probably would have snatched him up. That is probably my biggest holdback with these guys the tiny price tag will make it way too easy to see a cute one and go what's $20?
 
I just got two babies like this for free - they were plucked by their parents who got a new clutch. One is more gray, and another one more blue. They are considered light blue, but I would say they are gray.

Okay, I did some research - I think it's called 'diluted mauve greywing'. :) But it's hard to tell because I cannot see the wings and there is glare on the glass.
 
His wings looked exactly like the top middle picture in the link! Thanks the link was super helpful.
