Is this possible?

Post by littlemiraclesaviary »

Someone is selling a turquoise pallid hen that he says he got from a male pallid blue and a female albino. How is this possible? Where does the turquoise come from?

The Albino was probably really a Creamino - otherwise it's not possible, as Turquoise is a dominant mutation in the blue series , but recessive in green.

I have asked him for pictures of the albino hen as he is insistant that that is what the pairng is but the baby seems visually a turquoise pallid to me anyway. It's not blue or green but something in between.

sent email- one way to check your msg's (on this forum) is to look at the top lefthand corner of the screen, underneath the pic of the green's head is the new messages link- click on that to see any messages- if no messages it will display as '0 new messages'

Cheers,

This is definitely a Turquoiseblue Pallid- but the parent information is wrong for this bird

I got him to send me a pic of the parents and the female is in fact an albino but the male is not a pallid blue, looked like a pallid turquoise to me so that explains it. Thanks for all your help.
