PostPosted: Sun Mar 14, 2010 3:39 pm    Post subject: they are yellow...but what are they

ive just been reading through some threads.... and realised i dont actually know what my breeding birds are(apart from yellow) duno ..... i just call them the banana family <v> <v> <v> .... but thought that meant they were lutinos

mum n dad have no green on but after 1 of their first babies sprouted 2 green feathers i looked closer and discovered mum has a patch in the same place but its not really green just dull yellow Think ........ the other 4 babies dont have any green either ..... 5 more chicks dont have feathers yet so.......

the other thing is..... they all have black eyes.... no red ring at all

i need to sell some of the babies and id like to know so i can advertise them correctly Anxious

thanks for any help with this ...

Hi May,I would say they are yellow black eyed clears,the picture of your hen looks like she may have a red eye, if she has then they are split lutino, hope that helps. Laurie.

Just found this from a while back..... Petals eyes are in fact black but the flash on the camera picked them out red. Ive noticed a lot of adverts in the UK online and also pet shops selling yellow birds as Lutino even tho the birds have black eyes... Shame on you

Run a forum seach on

Lutino

There are a lot of threads by top breeders around the world discussing names used in different parts of the world, differences, mutations, crosses etc.

Hi,

your "banana family" (I laughed hard with this one, very sharp!) are a combination of:
dominant pied and recessive pied

Then... that combination receives a name. Depending on the region/country, they are refered to as goldcheck, BEC (black-eyed clear), DEC (dark-eyed clear.), etc...

By no means they are lutino.
Supposedly in kakariki we don't have yet the lutino mutation, and apparently the yellow birds with red eyes are indeed a combination of goldcheck + fallow.

As Steps says, if you search around the forum, you'll find plenty of discussions about this topic.

Cheers / Pablo
