does anyone know how a clearhead fallow opaline looks like

pictures are welcome too

Kees

I doubt if any breeder will be able to post a pic of an opaline chf or opaline bronze fallow. A friend of mine (Hugo Niebuhr) should be able to produce opaline chf (buttercup) this season. He also produced the first adm pied chf in SA.



Quality adm pied/chf

Hi
Sorry to burst your bubble but I would also be lining up with Hugo as I would also be breeding that this year. However there is another breeder in bloem that would also be in the running as he has the same pairing but the bird was bred last year in S.A
Tks

This buttercup pied cock of Hugo is a 2010 bird fyi. Don't count your .......................before...............

CHICKENS !

.

Can you post a picture when they got feathers

How is going with the breeding

Good and you my Friend, I have 7 pairs on eggs already so it looks like it is going to be a good season here is South Africa this year.

I had a bad year in Holland

Better luck next year

What colours are you breeding with

is there anyone that breed such a bird this year

is there anyone that is breeding with opaline and clearhead fallow
or opaline and cleartail

Kees

We are busy with our breeding season in SA. Will mail a pic if we are lucky this year.

Tienie

Please send me the pic as well if you are successful Tienie.

Kees did any of the pairings you and I spoke about got down this year ?

I had 4 chicks

1 blue pallid
1 grey
1 grey kobalt
1 turquoise grey

I know everyone is busy with breeding season...so answer when you have a chance. Would the CHF opaline have the red eyes or dark eyes? Thanks

They have red eyes
All clearhead fallows have red eyes

What colours are you breeding with

I'm not breeding with any yet. I'm in the states. Breeding season isn't for a few months yet. I just didn't know if the red changed with the addition of the opaline. Thanks

how is the breeding going in south africa

are there colours visible yet

Kees

Not yet my friend, I have 2 friends that with red eye babies in the nest but we need more time to see if they are clearheaded fallow opaline. One baby look different to the other therefore I believe we have an excellent chance.

We are blessed this season, all the breeders I speak to are positive with better results compared to the past 2 years.

Be patient, time will tell.

Tienie,

Any news on chf opaline?
Also, any pics of chf pieds? in dom pieds series?

I'm planning to pair up for above as well, i'd like to see phenotype ;)

Thanks

Ben and Kees

I contacted the breeder 2 weeks ago, according to him one of the babies must be chf opaline. It is a very light colour chf. If all go according to plan I will visit him this weekend to take pics.

Tienie

Hi tienie

Greetings kees

Hi tienie

Did you look at the birds that could be clearhead fallow opaline

Greetings kees

Kees

My apology for the late response. The bird died before I could get a picture. I have setup a pair to produce it myself.

Ask Sjack for pics of such a combo. He has breed one (femlae) in 2015. But the bird isn't as nice as an opaline CT. And a male will get the head of a CHF. For now such a bird is a lighter colored CHF with opaline markers in the flights and tail. But thats it.
