He has breed one (femlae) in 2015. But the bird isn't as nice as an opaline CT. And a male will get the head of a CHF. For now such...

Re: harlequin pallid

Both are melanin altering mutation. So a combination should be avoided because you will end up with "lutino" looking birds.
So best way is the combine both mutations with structual (dark, violet, deep) or (and) parblue (turquoise, indigo, aqua) mutations.

1. The red ring of a Turquoise Emerald (or TurquoiseEmerald, selon hypothesis) shows a lower amount of red psittacin than a TurquoiseBlue bird. This statement isn't correct.
