Re: Please help identify this mutation

Hi all, Please give opinion on the following bird, Originally from Belgium and is a split white tail. So far none of the offspring look like the cock bird which leads me to believe that it is a recessive gene and hopefully Ill prove that this season. http://www.flickr.com/photos/89143242@N05/8473281...

Re: Blue vs Aqua??? How to tell the difference???

Hi Aqua is a similar to the turquoise gene in the way one would calculate the breeding results, and correctly said in the other post below it has a more consistent color effect over the entire body of the bird. They are defiantly not as common as a turquoise bird and in my opinion a much more attrac...

Re: Indigo? Turquoise? Violet Pallid with pics

Hi Lushen

From my experience on grey cobalt you see more of the blue or cobalt color on the rump than if it were a normal grey! However this has a very different effect when using the deep blue gene in that the deep has the blue with a different sheen to the rump and flight feathers

Re: Indigo? Turquoise? Violet Pallid with pics

Hi All

I have a good way of checking! I just get Peter round to photograph my birds and apply filters! Its a slightly longer process because it sometimes take him a while to come visit. Even though I have sooooo many deep blue birds and mutation.

Oh well at least we chat often on whatsapp hey!
