Re: Lutino Cinnamon/blue

Hi Mike, thanks for the reply, very interesting thanks for the info, so this Ino might very well be Lutinocinnamon and that's why the lighter/other coloured flight feathers-but will have to wait and see if it darkens up to biscuit/brownish as she ages? And there is no possibility that the light flig...

Re: Lutino Cinnamon/blue

Hi guys, here is a photo of the chick, no flash,natural light, going through the book and looking at those light flight feathers, could this be a creamino?-that dad is blue and known to carry cinnamon and lutino- and would the green mother then need to be split to something for this chick to be crea...

Lutino Cinnamon/blue

Hi guys, hi Deb. If you guys read the previous post you would have seen that Deb mentioned that my Lutino hen might be Lutino Cinnamon/blue and not just Lutino/blue. I would like to know what the visual difference would be between the 2. The hen has left the nest this week and I can now see that her...

Re: first breeding of 8 year old hand reared green hen

if that is the case regarding the cock bird you do have a possibility that any male green baby may have a 50/50 chance to be split albino. The only way to find out is by test mating them when they are ready. If your blue cock bird is split lutino a yellow baby should pop out over the next few seaso...

Re: first breeding of 8 year old hand reared green hen

Hi Shaun You may get a blue baby a couple seasons down the line as it takes up to 18 babies to get an idea of more or less what slpits are in each bird. Do you know what colour parents from each of your birds are? As to pairing I would go with any blue series bird. Violet or cobalt if you are able ...
