I agree with you on the head stamp, but, can't Spotnoses be any color depending on what they're bred to? I'm not bashing you or anything, I'm just curious, because I don't really know about that morph (if you would call it that) haha. I've seen some Youtube videos about it and such.

Pee pee poor husbandry. Lmao slim you crack me up.
Edit-
Well yes there are varying degrees of any morph. But any spot n I've seen and I looked at quite alot of them before buying mine, they have more of a khaki color as a base. This one was just too orangey. Now If there was a better headstamp I'd say odds are better but I just don't see it. Just saying... I welcome them to still try and breed it out if they wish but I wouldn't get my hope anywhere near to up.

Sorry OP, it's a little like saying show me the really cool coins you stole from the homeless guy on the street corner, but let's not get into a discussion about rolling bums for money.

I understand your point, and I don't think we should cut them any slack. My reason for writing that was so people wouldn't get their feelings hurt for posting the animals they bought from a store and having people get angry at them for it. Having a cockatoo(my icon) who was abused I understand a little to well the sadness that comes from chain stores, my bird was probably wild caught and went through the QT process that about 25% of birds survived because of the horrible conditions, she was then badly neglected and abused by her original owners. Since having her I've gone to bird shows to photograph for my parrot blog, and many pet stores and seen things I wish I could erase from my mind and I haven't even seen the worst of it. :(

X2 Definitely doesn't look like a Spotnose to me either.
And as far as sexing goes it is ALOT easier to pop them when they are smaller!
