Has anyone breed Double factor violetblue Mauves?
Do shoot me down if I have the wording around the wrong way, is there a correct way to start the naming of a mutation like this, ie the violet before the mauve or the other way around?
If anyone has could they share a picture with us, I am guessing a very dark greyish/steel blue coloured bird.

I would think only a handful would exist. dfViolet, dfDark Blue (dfViolet Mauve)
I think Johan's attempting this for this season? I imagine it would look much like the sfViolet Mauve

Sheyd,
I thought that would be the case.
I have a pair set up which I believe are both df violetbluecobalts, one I breed and another I bought as a violetcobalt but it is too dark and rich in colour for a df violetblue.
Time will tell, both very compatible and currently working the box.

Hi Shey, it was one of the pairs I suggested to my dad, but the two birds were placed with different partners. There should be some mauve violet(sf) offspring, though, and maybe even one in edged.sheyd wrote:I would think only a handful would exist. dfViolet, dfDark Blue (dfViolet Mauve)

Hi guys,
Good luck breeding a DF Violet mauve. I have bred 2 SF Violet Mauves together for the last 2 seasons and still haven't bred 1, so I hope you guys have better luck than me. I've got my fingers crossed for this season though,
Cheers

Re: Double factor violetblue Mauve
We have bred them the other way around, now have 3x violet(df) cobalts, but we won't be trying for mauve violet(df) this season.
