Hi guys, sorry for not posting in this thread as I was busy studying for my papers which are now over. I would like to thank Johan for giving you guys some work to do while I was studying and would like for him and others to put up more puzzles if you guys like to keep the newbies busy. I will put u...

Hi guys sorry about not updating this thread, studying for my exams had me busy and now that it is over I can once again concentrate on my ringneck breeding, I do have pics of the 2 chicks, but am not going to put all of them online but what I will do is take out a few more recent pics of the albino...

Hi also forgot to mention by looking at the colour of the feet and nails of the parents, I would also think that there is a possibility of visual cinnamon in the parents. That would explain the grey wash on these birds

Thanks

Hi Johan, mistake on my side, that's what happens when a newbie like me tries to calculate outcomes in my head without using the calculator, now on double checking with the calculator I find that you are correct, there is a percentage of normal blue chicks without the dominant edge in both hens and ...

Lushen1600

Hi are the toe nails black or light grey?

If black, then its a blue, if light grey then its a blue cinnamon

Thanks

Hi if you are talking about albino masking violet blue male and a blue turquoise hen, then the results will be as follows 1.0 blue violet(sf) ino x 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue % from all 1.0 25.0% 1.0 blue /ino 25.0% 1.0 blue violet(sf) /ino 25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /ino 25.0% 1.0 turquoise(p...

Hi seeing that you have 8 males and 6 females and working with the birds you have, I would pair them as follows 1) Grey/ino Cock x Green Pallid Hen 2) DF TurqBlue Cock x Silver Hen 3) SF TurqBlue Cock x Blue Hen 4) Silver Cock x DF TurqBlue Hen 5) Green Pallid Cock x Lutino Hen 6) Blue Cinnamon Cock...

Hi, I don't think both the parents are dominant edge, and I think the lighting in certain photographs is making the flights look like that of a dominant edge, but I could be wrong, if both the parent were visual dominant edge, then the blue chick should also be visual dominant edge which is not bein...

Hi, if I remember correctly one noticeble difference between turquoise blue and indigo blue is the colour of the neck ring

Turquoise blue has black, white and red in the neck ring
Indigo blue has only black and white on the neck ring, no red

Hope this helps

Thanks

Hi Willow your calculation is correct. As for your question ino or blue ino will mask edge dilution so the babies will look like normal Lutino and normal albino and will have to be test mated to preferably normal green or normal blue birds which are not carrying any splits to determine if these bird...

Hi all, in the next lesson as I have said in a previous lesson our next mating will be a "Lutino cock" to a "Lutino hen" So by now we already know how to enter these into the calculator, so once entered hit the "Generate" button and your results should be as follows htt...

Hi all, while I still have some free time let's go onto the next lesson, if you haven't already tried to work with the 2 matings that I left as homework on the last lesson, then I would suggest that you go back and try to work them out first before reading this to see if your results match mine So w...

Green ringnecks normally have tail feathers which are yellow underneath Another option for you would be to look for an male albino(white) ringneck and mate it to one of your green hens to achieve the following results 1.0 blue ino x 0.1 green % from all 1.0 100.0% 1.0 green /blue ino % from all 0.1 ...

Lushen1600

Yes they will be green only unless they are carrying any recessive genes from previous generations. You don't need to find a green/blue male to breed greens and blues, you can keep one of the female green/blue chicks and mate it back to the father and as you will see from the calculation below, you ...

T1
T2

Thanks
Lushen

Lushen1600

Hi Rritoch, if all 3 off your green ringnecks are females then from the parents genetics they will be normal green not split to anything, that is if the parents were not carrying any splits. In this case I would say that the father was green and the mother was lutino, as per the calculation below, t...
