Re: Misty Indian ringnecks

Re: What to pair with a Violet and Double Factor Violet

Hi


a double factor grey bred to a violet will produce all grey phenotypes, so its not a very good pairing. If its single factor grey it should have 25 % violet offspring

Have you already bought the violets ?

Re: PIed Palllid ?

i dont see the edge dilution in the bird, the wings do look alot like lacewing, but yeah the head is too dark for lacewing.

What would be a good breeding option for this?
i was thinking sf violet, that should produce violet green dom edged split blues

Re: DF VIolet Green

Yeah will find atleast a violet blue for this bird after i have him sexed

so are you positive that he/she is split to blue, or should i breed him to another blue IRN to see if he does carry the gene?


@Johan: no i got him as a hand tame baby for 350 so i still have a budget to spend around

Re: Help!! Violet or Blue?

not even a cobalt? Because I've been doing a lot of research on cobalts and the colours seem to match

What I meant with turqoise is that the normal blues are lighter than this bird (something like the picture with the flash)
