Plausible Question Madas ! Molossus looks an emerald violet green dom pied...can he post some pics and tell us about the birds breeding. I talked to him about that bird a while back. It comes from a breeder with lots of experience (was first in Oz to have violet with his partner at the time) and he...

Small Query : a normal blue with camera flash appears sea green; but this female is showing intense blue with camera flash (interestingly the tail isnt the intense) , isnt she more than a normal blue (perhaps a Dark or Deep factor involved) ? http://www.indianringneck.com/forum/download/file.php?id=...

Sherjil

First, sorry for my bad English... I have a female green Is two years old, I do not know 100% who her parents were but I think they were green. Now I want to breed her with a male of a different color to get chicks is not green, and these are my options: 1)Young blue male, he is not out strip ... B...

Sherjil

Thanks Skyes_crew, yeah both she and her mate are Nepalese sub-species. Earlier I discussed about her sub-species from another senior member Mr Lee Naidoo from SA and he also confirmed that it is Nepalese. Here is a snap of her from back in Nov 2012 http://i1215.photobucket.com/albums/cc502/Sherjil/...

Sherjil

Hi Skyes_crew thanks for your reply, you have a beautiful looking bird :) how old is it in this snap ? no I don't have any history of her parents; however I can tell from the ring that the bird is 2011 bred. It should breed in the coming season. Here are the snaps : With Flash http://i1215.photobuck...

Dear Members; I have an adult alex pair which are going through their anual molt.

Hi can anyone pls tell me highlights of Terry's New book and whr it can b ordered ? Thanks

Sherjil

Hi guys isn't pied mutation enough to put the brightness ( yellow in green series ) without aid frm ino ...as per my understanding pied inhibits matabolic pathways of melanin production & melanin also plays a role to reduce the brightness of pasittacin . Hence by complete elimination of melanin ...

Sherjil

Sherjil hi, still waiting for your visit. imo,the deep isn't closer to the dark in terms of the color spectrum. it is more closer to normal blue. I suspect that closer investigation of the feather of the deep (by the scientists - eg mutavi) would reveal its exact unique trait. unfortunately persona...

Sherjil

Hi Ring0Neck ! just a basic question came to my mind ... why a deep phenotype looks more dark blue (towards cobalt) than normal blue ? is it due to increase in melanin, feather structure changes or as I deduced from this thread, due to presence of psittacine ?

Sherjil

Hi, maybe the light change the appearance of the base colour. but i was wondering if the effect of cinnamon would also give it`s head the yellowish look,here is a picture from a different angle https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-13yyfERk9ts/UWoW8ArH5NI/AAAAAAAAABA/j0yHSDWbY4U/s640/2013-04-01%252520...

Sherjil

Hi The base colour is blue. I have seen normal blue pallid and the head is lighter than the body in colour almost white, i don`t know if the turquoise darken the head :?: Hi ; May be it is due to the background light effect that the head seems lighter than body and the bird seems grey. You are the ...

Hi Ringo; There are more than one attributes which are unusual abt this female. 1) It has a smaller head size which doesn't seem proportionate to its body ... I have seen a blue pallid female with similar head size [can be a product of excessive inbreeding] 2) Not sure if this is due to specific li...

Hi prodigy Did you establish anything of the 5 pied like birds you have ? I was looking at the snap of the dark green 2010 male you shared & it has a clear white iris ... is it one of those birds you have ? also the dominant inheritance is partially visible in the emerald split CT male as it al...

Sherjil

Sorry to hear about your loss Johan, hope you can catch the thief and recover the bird ! We had a similar incident in our locality, the guy who's birds were stolen did spread the words on the local birds blog immediately and by chance the thieves contacted a blog member (who was living in a differen...

Peter this is a beautiful looking bird & thanks for sharing the snaps :) Correct me if I am wrong , below are some questions from the red bird experts :- 0) Can you tell the origin of this mutation; how did it first appear ? 1) Red is a "patterned mutation" & doesn't mask the whol...

Alex experts please help me identify the sub-species. thanks

Hi Members; I recently got a female alex to bond with my male alexandrine. Can you please tell which sub-species of alexandrine is it ? and what are the identifiers of this sub-species ?

Danny Your bird is not an Albino. I think (unless your pics lie) the 2 parents are visual Dom. Edged or Dilute. or similar Your blue chick is same as parents however your white bird i think it is Double Factor Edge Dilute (let's call it Dilute) It is still bizzare how the breeder told you they bred...

Just wondering , is the black ring around the male rose ringed parakeet or the alexandrine because of structural change in the feathers or because of high concentration of melanin pigment. If the 2nd case is true then I think selective breeding of grey (structural) mutation wont be of much help ! I...

Sherjil

Sherjil Hi, In my opinion the chicks will eventually reflect a greater percentage of green than the mother. It will spread to the wings and the existing areas will increase as well. by the end of the second year the birds will have largely colored up. Is it possible that the sire is carrying turq a...

Sherjil

AThe mother has parblue feathers on its side wings while its flights and tail feathers are solid blue. The chick has parblue feathers on its back while its flights and tail feathers are pale green. That might be related to the age difference. Do all the parblue chicks look the same, though? That wo...

you will enter Violet SF then select Turquoise and Blue will be selected as split this will give you a SF violet heterozygous turquoise blue

anyone ?

Sherjil

Dears please advice , thanks

Sherjil

Dear Members;

Please advise if this is some medical issue or normal ? the iris of my male ringneck seems increasingly reddish.

Apart from this the bird is perfectly active & healthy.

Sherjil

1) if you like creaminos then best is to pair with an albino or creamino cock
2) if you like rainbow then pair with a blue palid cock

you will get creamino hens in first generation from first pairing
you will get rainbow hens in first generation from second pairing

Sherjil

Hi Sherjil, As I wrote above the offspring is one lutino, one albino and 3 creamino (turquoise-SL Ino). The 3 creamino are exactly the same phenotype but the different ligth incidence can make appear one or the other ligther than the others. Those are not my birds but from a friend, so I will not b...

OK lets get this thread going with some pictures of my Red birds.

Hi Recio

How can we determine if a bird has a certain mutation on t1 or t2 ? can you please give an example in which mutation being on t1 and t2 can effect the outcome. thanks

Sherjil

Hi Smick; if it is PBFD then most of the effected adult birds may recover; however they still remain a carrier. It mainly effects younger birds where it can be fatal. A perfect example of naturally occurring cases of PBFD was found in the echo parakeets which are from the ringneck family. Here are s...

Hi Recio; Before discussing my mistake let me answer your nxt question , so assuming below %age of psittacin :- Saphire = 20 to 40 % Indigo = 40 to 60 % Turquoise = 60 to 80 % Then below are the phenotype of A, B , C & D :- A is saphire with white/black ringneck B is indigo with cream/black ring...

Hi everybody, I think that the best thing to make understandible my idea about parblue alleles is to play this game: We are going to imagine a control model with the following premises: 1. Let's imagine that we have several heterozygous parblues (ParblueBlue) able to produce 20, 40, 60 or 80% of ps...

I will go for a green clear-tail youngster , possibly a male as I see a pink feather in the second pic around the ring area.
