Opaline is extremely variable. Some of them show green and yellow and blue in varying amounts. Some people are even selecting for these birds, and call them...
Terry, Well, I just think that stinks. Could it be that if we went back to the previous generation that that may be where the 'poor'-ly colored are? Do you...
Carie, I guess I've been lucky then, as all of my previous FallowOpalines have had 'good' coloring. I've just assumed that all would. I guess these must be ...
I have not produced any FallowOplalines yet (I just got my first pair that should produce them), but the babies I saw at the breeders where I got my new birds...
Hi all I found a mature breeding male Green Naped Lorikeet (Trichoglossus h. haematodus), which has a red suffusion over its body. The male is 5 years old. Any...
Thanks Carie, I guess I'm just unsure as I have bred lots of FallowOpalines, both Dun FallowOpalines and Bronze FallowOpalines, but these just look so much...
That bird is the same as the rainbow lorikeet I acquired recently and posted (again here). You say it is breeding Gideon, my obvious question is what are the...
Terry and Inte, could you study the image of the back of my red suffused rainbow lorikeet and explain what has happened from a feather structure point of view?...
Hi Willy Yes his is breeding with a normal hen, all offspring are normal, I managed to get hold of a daughter, but she is only 9 months old. Unfortunately the...
Thanks Gideon, my bird is age unknown as I spotted it at a dealer's and they couldn't tell me where it came from. It was hand reared I am sure and it is ...
Hello, I´m Manuel and i would like to know the correct name for the red Rump mutation in attached photos, if possible, please! What do you advice me to mate...
Hello Manuel, Looks to me as a pallid red rump hen. If you like this colour you best pair this hen to a pallid or split pallid cock. With regards, Andre van...
Hi Manuel, I don't know the correct name, but it looks like what we're calling a silver here in the states. I'm not sure, but I think the parblue mutation...
Deb ... The topic needs extensive study to fully document. I have had normal/opaline cocks that threw good coloured young, but I found as soon as I introduced...
Willy It is difficult to explain in one simple process. To my mind, that makes it more likely to be aquired than genetic. But who knows? Similar comments about...
Manuel, Pat The bird is a Pallid Turquoise combination. The Pallid is what I refer to as Lime in my book and Turquoise is the Parblue mutation fka 'European...
Thanks Terry, If I had more pairs, I might would be interested in trying. I guess I need to start being a little more critical in my decissions of who to keep ...
please let me know if i'm correct..... M LUTINO - F Cinnamonblue Produces : M Green split Lutino and Blue and cinnamon 50% F Lutino split Blue 50% also can...
Ron, lutino and cinnamon can appear on the same chromosome through crossing over. I believe the rate is around 3%, therefore it is not common, but does happen....
So in that case the "M" offspring would be only split to blue and lutino not cinnamon. or would it be the other way around... Ron ... crossing over. ... does ...
Hi Ron Your results will be Males: 100% Green/blue/cinnamon/lutino Females 100% Lutino/blue With 3% chance of cinnamon-ino females if crossover takes place...
Hi all Here are some pics of two of my Cinnamonino females, bred out of a Lutino/Blue male and a Greygreen Cinnamon/Blue female. I personally am so impressed...
Thay Princess parrot is red suffused but as experience has shown it may only be acquired and not transferable as a mutation. Willy ... From: christopher...
Question did you post the pics in the photo or in a file as i do not seem to get the photos in the posts, or could you please e-mail me the photos as i would...
If the Cinnamon that you have there is the same as what we have here in the US, it would be sex linked and thus the males from that mating would be double...
Gideon Would'nt the cockbird have to be split cinnamon also ? to show visual colour [cinnamonino].Or are yours of the xover type ..not the combining of the 2...
Hi Everyone, Would like to seek your expert advice on the genetic make up of Blue Cinnamon (having skyblue forehead and light cinnamon (brownish) body colour)-...
Hello Everyone, Does anyone here use Bird Tracker for Windows? If so can you email me as I have some questions for you. I will have my first eggs in a few days...
Gideon and Ron The two seperate situations with your birds highlight the two different ways linked genes can be carried. Gideon's hens have the Cinnamon and...
