Hi,
That is weird for the first pair. :?
Maybe your grey is a grey green because I can see one green feather on it.
the second pair, the male is a cinnamon turq. so the baby in a cinnamon blue hen and you have a blue male and a turquoise blue male.

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue cinnamon x 0.1 blue

% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 blue /cinnamon
50.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /cinnamon

% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 blue cinnamon
50.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue cinnamon

Hopefully I am right :?
chatcha later, David

Regarding the first pair they will always breed green coloured birds below is the calc.

1.0 grey(sf) blue
x 0.1 ino
% from all 1.0
50.0% 1.0 grey(sf) green /blue ino
50.0% 1.0 green /blue ino
% from all 0.1
50.0% 0.1 grey(sf) green /blue
50.0% 0.1 green /blue


All the babies will be green or greygreen


Thanks Glenn

No. the male is a normal grey one. And glenn has posted the correct results for this pairing.
So your lutino hen is not split for blue and you will never get any blue offspring from this pair.

I don't think so. The cock looks like a normal turquoise blue bird and the hen like a normal blue bird (as said by jan).
So i think the turquoise blue cock is split for Pallid (old lacewing). Then the lighter colored bird should be a female pallid blue bird. the other two young birds look like one blue and one turquoise blue.

1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /pallid x 0.1 blue
% from all 1.0
25.0% 1.0 blue /pallid
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue /pallid
25.0% 1.0 blue
25.0% 1.0 turquoise(parblue)Blue
% from all 0.1
25.0% 0.1 blue
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue
25.0% 0.1 blue pallid
25.0% 0.1 turquoise(parblue)Blue pallid

Greetings.
