When do all the colors develop?

I was just wondering, when do all the colors finally develop for the bird?

My lovie is around 4 months now I think and started changing colors again. Shes got peach on her head now, followed by more dark/light greens and different blues. Every week its like I find a new color now lol. Shes turning out awesome so far though.

Within the first year.

Beetle, my OF green mutation PF lovebird had a very pale orange face when I first got him home. Every few weeks it seemed like his "mask" was getting larger and brighter. His green feathers seemed to get brighter, too :)

She'll be even more gorgeous than she is now as the year progresses :D
