He's a singlefactor Dark Blue (sfDark Blue) otherwise known as 'cobalt'. DfDark Blue is a very greyish coloured bird.

IMO Anything but Grey and Ino for structural mutations like cobalt- as both of those mask Dark in both series.

Results below- (all Dark offering will be sf)
Blue: Blue, Dark Blue
Emerald: Blue, Dark Blue, Emerald Blue, Dark Emerald Blue
TurquoiseBlue: Blue, Dark Blue, TurquoiseBlue, Dark TurquoiseBlue
Greygreen: Blue, Green, Dark Blue, Dark Green, Grey*, Greygreen* * could be masking Dark
Grey: same as as GreyGreen, but without green series.

sfDark Blue = cobalt (a dark blue bird) & dfDark Blue = mauve (a grey coloured bird)
another thing I wanted to know further is according to you which combination could get me more cobalts and dark cobalts...
Blue would be your best pairing... You'll get roughly 50% sfDark Blues (cobalts)
