Yes but only in the Cock bird. They are called Pallidinos.
Albino Hens and Grey Green and Green Pallidino Cocks.

rod038

Increase the Seed and Fruit as it gets closer to the chicks hatching. They should hatch about 28 to 30 Days from first egg being laid.

rod038

There could be a number of reasons he lost them but I would be confident they will grow back next moult which will be around January in Perth. The other tail feather will fall out then too and the overall appearance will become very rough looking for a month or so. They always moult at the same time...

rod038

You could if you wanted too. Ringnecks dont spend alot of time on the ground. Something that you find easy to clean works best. Also be sure to have a regular worming program in place.

rod038

Being a pallid will lighten her Violet Colour.

rod038

I would use a Turquoise Blue Pallid to produce some nice coloured young.

rod038

There are Violet Greens and Violet Blues. Sometimes if it just says Violet it can mean Violet Green but other times people call Violet Blues just Violets.

rod038

There would be a few different colours that you could use and I will assume that he has no splits. Another Blue hen would give you all Blues. A Grey hen would give you Blues and Greys. A Violet Blue Hen would give you Blues and Violets. Now if one of those Hens you used also was a Pastel or Turquois...

I did a check this morning when I was feeding them and all her eggs were warm so maybe she was just a late starter. I will leave her to it now. Thanks again everyone for your help.

rod038

Thanks for the replies. She laid another egg this morning and seems to be spending more time in the box today but still comes out alot of the time. She has laid 5 eggs now over 11 days. I havent got an incubator only a hospital cage and all my other hens have either got chicks or full clutches of eg...

rod038

It doesnt work like that. Violet is its own mutation and to breed them you need a Violet of either Sex.

rod038

Assuming the bird you refer to as Olive is a Grey Green. Olive has been used to refer to a few different mutations. It is meant for a Green series bird with a dark factor. You will get Lutino, Albino in Hens. Some of them will be split to Blue and in Cocks Grey Green and Green all split to Ino. The ...

rod038

It sounds like you are doing a great job. Yes you can definately try introducing other foods for them to try and as they get a bit older they will start to pick at it themselves.

rod038

They may need a bit more time. If nothing has happened by the end of the season it could be worth changing the pairs around but only keep one breeding pair per cage.

rod038

Yes this is very possible if he has done it before. You can remove him next time before the eggs hatch and the hen is able raise them on her own.

rod038

You usually worm them twice a year. Buy the smallest amount you can from the pet shop as it does have a use by date on it. Follow the directions on the bottle. Always best to worm any new birds you aquire.

rod038

Thanks Molossus for the reply. This is her first time that she has ever bred. Unfortunately I dont have any other hens with eggs that can foster for her and I dont know if they are fertile as she hasnt started to develop them as yet. I think I might just have to leave her and see what happens. Would...

I have a Hen that has bred for the first time this season as a 2 year old and is paired with a 2 year old Cock bird. She has just laid 4 eggs each of them 3 days apart and hasnt started setting on them. She has only gone in the box to lay. I have never had a hen do this before. Any Ideas?

rod038

I live in Australia in what would be described as a Cold climate. During Winter just about every night is below 0 degrees Celcius and they do fine. They do need to get used to it so moving them in and outside wouldnt be a good idea.

rod038

So your Turquoise is a Tuquoise Green. If it is Split to Blue then you have a good chance of Breeding Turquoise Blue from that pairing. It is alos known as Pastel Blue. Here is a link to a calculator that may help you. I have entered your Pair for you to see the outcome. http://www.gencalc.com/gen/e...

rod038

I forgot to mention that Hens cant be split Ino, either they are or they arent so it is more than likely a Blue which will give you Grey and Blue young.

rod038

A Sky Blue Lacewing would appear almost white with just the slightest hint of Blue on the body. Its head would be pure white. It is a Combination of Cinnamon and Lacewing and Blue. It is a Sex linked Mutation like your Lutinos. Pairing it to a Turquoise Blue Cock bird would give you Blue and Turquoi...

rod038

You dont want to use shredded news paper. Pine shavings are fine as long as they are from untreated timber. You could mix them half and half with peat moss. Pour water over the mixture and then grab handfulls and sqeeze out the excess water. Pack in into the base of the box about 5 to 8cm deep. The ...

rod038

Any of those choices would be ok except for the Cleartail if the Cock turns out to be a split Lacewing as you would be mixing 2 similar looking mutations.

rod038

If it bred an Albino for the previous owner then it has to be split Blue. If not split Blue then Lutino and Green. The Lutinos will be Hens.

rod038

Should be closer to 25% Lutino 25% Albino 25% Green and 25% Blue.

rod038

Yes the Lutino Cock must be split to Blue. All Lutino or Albino Chicks will be Hens. The rest will be Cocks.

rod038

If the feathers had been pulled out and not just bitten off then they should start to grow back strait away if there was no other damage caused. If they were broken off then they will be replaced when the bird next moults out and gets all new feathers.

rod038

Green if hen not split to blue.

rod038

If you are talking about DNA sexing then all you find out is the Sex. The other information was provided by the Breeder when they sent the Sample in. Finding out what they are split to can be done over many years with selective test breeding or from knowing what the parents were. Even knowing the pa...

rod038

Maybe or she could be getting ready to lay eggs. Take a look if she will let you or wait till you see she is out the box and check then. The Hens do start to spend more time in the box when they are ready to lay and it is breeding time where you are.

rod038

Sorry I was thinking it was a Violet Blue and not Violet Green. I just re read it.

rod038

A bird cannot be split Turquoise, either it is or it isnt.

rod038

Blue Ino.

rod038

If your Lutino isnt split to Blue then you wont get any Albinos at all. If it is split to Blue then there is a chance of getting an Albino Male.

rod038

Get yourself one of those little LED torches and you hold the egg against it at about 10 days old and you will see red veins inside the egg showing it is fertile. If you check them now and they are fertile they would appear very dark. If you can see the yolk or they appear clear then they are not fe...

rod038

What date were they Laid? Did you check to see if they are fertile?

rod038

I would give them another week. The first egg can hatch up to 30 days from being laid then the rest can hatch over the next few days.

rod038

If it is Split Blue you could. Creamino is a Blue series Mutation.

rod038

The best is around 25mm up to about 40mm. The bigger the perch the more chance their droppings foul the perch.

rod038

Pallid is also known in some parts as a Lacewing. It is one of the many Mutations in Indian Ringnecks and yours is a combination of 2 Mutations, Blue and Pallid or Lacewing. I am in Australia and they are very common here as I would say they would be in most places. If it is a Cock bird it will deve...

rod038

Creamino is a Turquoise mutation. It is a Turquoise Albino. There would be a few ways to breed them. One way would be to get a Turquoise Blue Hen and an Albino Cock bird or a Turquoise Blue split Ino Cock and an Albino Hen.

rod038

It appears to be a Blue Pallid Indian Ringneck from your avatar.

rod038

A Creamino is a Blue series bird and it isnt a mix of Cinnamon. It is an Turquoise or Pastel Albino.
So an Albino with turquoise would be a Creamino.

rod038

There is a 25% chance that it is. Again you will learn more about your bird when you breed it.

rod038

It is not 100% that this bird will be split Blue but pairing it to a Violet Blue will tell you the same as pairing it to a Blue so you may as well use a Violet Blue.

What makes you think it is a Double factor Violet Green?

rod038

Just select Grey and Cinnamon. Its also known as a Grey Green Cinnamon and is a very nice looking bird.

rod038

All Green split Blue unless your Green is split Blue and then it will Green and Blue.

rod038

I would say that is right. What state are you in? Im in NSW.
