Hi All, Lucas has told me that he still can't email the group for some reason. He has contacted Terry and hopefully the situation will be sought out soon....
Hi Rick Attached a picture of a Greygreen split pied IRN. Apart from the clear feathers, look at the nail of the hind toe left foot. Deon ... From: Rick Solis ...
Hi Everyone, Thanks for the responses. I did not express myself well in the posting. I know that split pied birds of many (all?) species are marked. I would ...
Hi Rick, I believe that the most important difference to distinguish the dominant and recessive pied is: a) DF pied x normal = "always" visual (SF) pied b)...
Rick, I have long argued the recessive inheritance of pied rainbow lorikeets. The arguments for their dominance are indeed strong. MOST heterozygous young from...
I need some advise from the Genetic experts. I have some Diluted Edge White-Face Lovebirds. I need to know if the Edge mutation is a Recessive or Dominant or...
Michael, Russell Have either of you bred many generations with these birds? The reason why I ask is that I have been contemplating some interesting result ...
????? There are no established Blue Turquoisine mutation anywhere that I am aware, although there have been Parblue type birds from time to time, but never...
Pat Cant wait to see what they look like on the perch. It does look like Turquoise and Blue are heteroallelic, with these youngsters being greener than either...
Hey Pratheep & Every Birdie, if you are refering to the A. roseicollis (rose-collared aka peach-faced LoveBird)'s edged-dilute mutation as I presume you are ;...
Edged Dilute is a recessive mutation. You shouldn't use the term 'Blue' as there are no Blue mutations in the Peachface Lovebird. There are however, Parblue...
Hi Terry i have not breed any as yet but the yellowheaded opaline hen i have came from a yellow headed opaline and a rubino hen(not yellow headed) they had 2...
Kevin Your results are consistent with my suggestion of sex-linkage. Sex-linked genes are passed on by hens as well, but only to their sons and then they only...
Rick Attached is a word document containing an article I wrote a few months back for the Australian Cockatiel Society. You are welcome to print it for the...
Mick, please do the punters a favour and post this link to Petbirdbuy. I have been banned as you know for defending myself after daring to suggest that the...
hi rick, i mentioned the same query as you a few weeks back here. but no bit the cherry. i did breed birds in the past from the following pair of birds before...
Thanks for the response to my inquiry on violet and dark factors in the masked lovebird. I have a bird that is clearly different than any others that I have...
Terry, Kev, I can positively rule out sex-linkage with my birds. I have (and also a mate) bred YH cocks out of YH cocks to non YH hens. cheers Russell ... ...
Hi Terry The feather quality is slightly improved but not much. Interestingly the cock is blind in one eye. I have attached some photos I took this week now...
Pat It must be a lighting issue, the chicks look much bluer now they are out of the box. Can you get a photo of them along side the father to help illustrate...
Hi Terry and Everyone, Below are links to large format photos of an oddly colored cockatiel entered in a show this past weekend. For judging purposes I...
Hi everyone! My flock is now a little more diverse than it was a few months ago when I posed this question...presently of breeding age I have (in Aussie...
Rick The links do not allow access, they must be for a members only list. Can you send copies directly to this group Terry ... From: "Rick" <acs18s@...> ...
Hi all, a fellow has advertised this galah for sale. At first glance it looks like a lutino but the feet and eyes are normal. He says parents were apparently...
