Yeah the last pic is of some of my Masks. The Masks have a white eye ring. Their colours are a lot different to the Peachfaces.
The Suns are great. Very cheeky birds and very inquisitive

Jeremy,
What beautiful babies you have! What kind are the first ones in the round picture? Are they senegal? I'm so glad you don't live close. You could get me into trouble! What BEAUTIFUL birds you raise! So how did you get into raising birds? And how did you pick what kinds you wanted to raise??
Hugs,
Jen

They are Green Cheek Conures.
Maybe if i had a spare $13k i would get myself some Senegals
I used to have Lovebirds, Red Collared Lorikeets, Tiels, Ringnecks and Superb Parrots. After my Superb Parrots both died without any warning, i decided to get out of Australian Parrots and vouched never to get into them again. So i slowly sold all my Australian birds and got into the exotics. I always like the Conures so got the two species that i could afford. Sun and Green Cheek. Then i expanded my collection of Ringnecks and got heaps more Peachface Lovebirds (i just bred a rare mutation and needed more cages to breed some more - pretty good excuse huh?). And i always wanted Quakers so recently decided to do something about it and bought 2 pairs.

Why am I thinking those two look like Senegals?? Do Senegals even resemble them??
Oh well. I know what a cockatiel and parakeet are. Tee hee!
Hugs,
Jen

From there...way different Jen. Ah though it is hard to tell the difference between species when you've never really seen them. That's what you have us for
Besides I am just one big bird geek as it is...

Are Senegals bigger than Green Cheeks? And why do they call them Green Cheeks when their heads are black??? Hmmmm........... Just wondering.

Senegals are a tad bigger than your average tiel but stocky...and green cheeks are called green cheeks because they have a patch of green feathers on the cheek...hehehe self explanitory there...
See?
