possible colours from torquise cobalt /buttercup
i have a pair of torquise cobalt irn both split for buttercup and they have bred 2 chicks this year one is a torquise and the other looks cobalt all over except for a faint torquise on its flight feathers,does anyone know if it possible to get violets off this pairing of torquise cobalts as the 2nd chick looks very dark
Re: possible colours from torquise cobalt /buttercup
Not possible to get Violets. The dark chick could be a Double Factor Cobalt. When you add 2 dark factors together you can get a Mauve which is like a dark Grey coloured bird.

Try to post some pics of the parents and the darker offspring. perhaps one of your turq cobalts is a bad (light) colored turq violet and the offspring is then a (turq) cobalt violet. But rod is right if the really are two turq cobalts. Pics will show it. ;)
