Wow that’s interesting! What is the difference exactly? 

I don’t think the OP is an Easter Egg.  Easter eggs have a very distinct purple & pastel colors,  and yours is more tan on my screen?  Correct?   The ones on the right in this box are Easter eggs. 
 

Yours is just a Vitro Shooter.  Parrots need 4 colors without white or the base color being white. Does your have 4?

Thanks for responding! Mine is orange, green, yellow, and a lavender/tan (closer to tan than purple) color.

I’m interested to see if anyone else has an opinion on what type of vitro it is. I’d love to know if others feel it is a parrot or just an unnamed shooter. I love it either way, I just enjoy knowing if possible :icon_popcorn:
 

your answer lies within this link :

Thanks Chad. I guess if the only criteria is four colors and no white, than mine is a Parrot. It just. Doesn’t loook like the Parrots I’ve seen because of the colors. Appreciate it 👍

I think some of this is subjective when it comes to parrots.  Even if it has 4 colors they should be bold parrot like colors IMO.  For example the one on the left is similar to yours and I wouldn’t call it a parrot even though it has 4 colors.  One on right has 4 colors and you can clearly tell from this pallet that it qualifies!

Ah! Now that makes a lot of sense to me. I love my marble, and I think the green is really beautiful, but it doesn’t seem to fit Easter Egg or Parrot criteria completely.

At a glance, the colors lean more toward Easter egg because they’re slightly more pastel and lack intensity. But like you said, the colors aren’t right for that either.

More than anything, I just want them to be identified and organized correctly. I’m inclined to agree with you. I think I have a really cool Vitro shooter. Oddly enough, out of all the marbles in my collection, these Vitro’s are some of my favorites. I appreciate you taking the time to help me understand and identify it correctly 🙏

Vitro Buttermilks are some of my favorites!
