I have this female IRN, we always thought she was a blue but from some of the pics I have seen online she isnt as bright of a blue. She appears more of a "country blue", a dusty blue. We are just wondering for sure what her color is, any help is appreciated Thanks

Hey I'd say she is a turquoise. However maybe someone else has somethine else??? Hehehe I am still kind of new at al of this IRN stuff anyway and could always use someone else's advice...
She looks like Tiki. Tiki's color will change in pic's as well depending on the lighting. Tiki is considered a blue IRN as well (at least by the breeder). Tiki's birth Mom was green and his Dad was blue. I too think that he is more of a turquiose color, especially since that is what you get when you mix blue and green together.
Tiki is a Blue. And Tiki's mother would have been Green/Blue.
Kare_Bare, your bird is also a Blue.
This photo shows the difference between a Pastel Blue and a Blue. I think in Amercia Pastels are called Turquoise.
Left: Pastel Blue (Turquoise) Right: Blue
There is a difference between blue and cobalt. Blue is so much more lighter, like Tiki kare_bear's, than cobalt, which in colour is what most people think of when they hear 'blue'.
Yes, the pastel is called turquoise blue in the US.
I've been called 'birdbrained' before, but somehow I don't think this is what they meant. say:hah-nay
Ok, I was told by Byndi's breeder that he was a "teal." Is there such a color? Or is he turquoise? The photo Jeremy showed the turquoise sure looks like my Byndi. So... And Byndi's breeders also told me he was "TAME"! And you all know that wasn't so true! So what do you all think? Turquoise or teal? I should make a poll and see what the votes are.
Your breeder will obviously say anything to make that sell, we have seen that huh? I would find another breeder I trusted. Or even better, listen to the board members, I wouldnt even mess with communicating with that 'breeder'.
The bird is turquoise. Not teal, not hunter green, not neo-classical hehe... turquoise.
