When she's wrapped around a branch completely like in the first photo of her, she looks predominantly yellow. But when she hangs off, you see that her color shifts from yellow along her spine, to orange on her sides, and then to red along her belly.
She was also deep in shed in this picture, which darkens her up quite a bit.

Not a morph, just a unique color. Green is one of the least common colors seen in ATBs. I've seen hundreds of pictures of ATBs, and I can count the number of green specimens I've seen on one hand. The green ones are usually some shade of olive green, not lime green like GTPs or ETBs. "Normal" Amazons are loosely divided into two groups based on their color: "Colored" = any combination of yellow, orange, and red, and "garden phase" = any color not yellow, orange or red, which mostly leaves any shade of brown or gray (earth tones). Olive green is usually considered an earthtone, so Youngster is right, she is considered a garden phase.
The only two morphs are tiger (stripes running from head to tail along spine) and leopard (spots that are round or oval). The tiger morph is dominant, and I believe the leopard morph is recessive.

Re: Some more ATBs
I love that olive, never seen one before. The female in that pairing almost looks olive too.

Re: Some more ATBs
Do you have any younger photos of the first female? I'd be interested in her color changes. I love the first male too...Actually that first pair is worth keeping an eye on

Re: Some more ATBs
@millertime89-the female is a really dark olive drab color, much like an anaconda. The male is more the color of an actual green olive, with some gray mixed in.
@jaleely-I got both of them as adults, so I don't have any baby pics of them. There's no way to tell what either of them looked like when they were younger. And there is no guarantee what any of their offspring would look like, because color inheritance is completely unpredictable in ATBs.

Re: Some more ATBs
I think thats the nice thing about ATBs is that you never know what you may get from any pairing or what they look like as adults..
I just have one question if a neonate starts off as a garden phase can it turn red or orange as it matures? (I am pretty unfamiliar with the species)

It depends on the individual. Here is a little neonate I sold a while back. Most people would consider it a "garden", but it has enough orange in it that it might have grown to have a considerable amount of orange as an adult. It would NOT mature into a screaming, solid orange though. The change isn't that drastic.
A garden like this one, however, will never become orange.
