Right down on the first joint. Scared the hell out of me as his foot was like a balloon and he could not move his toes. I was lucky enough to be able to keep twisting until it got high enough to cut it off, I'd say had I not noticed it until the next feed it would have swollen too much that I would ...

dan4nas

I wouldn't have taken it into my own hands unless I felt we were holding him etc in a way that wasnt going to hurt him. Had it been any tighter no I would not have done it myself.

dan4nas

No problem :) I was feeding echo his egg and biscuit snack, once finished I put him down on the lounge while I cleaned up. Looking over I saw him wabbling as he was walking, watched closer and realised he wasnt putting weight on his leg. I picked him up and looked at his foot and it was very swollen...

dan4nas

All good guys we got if off. Swelling has gone down within two minutes.

dan4nas

Hi guys.. noticed today echo didnt want to weight bare on his left foot. Upon closer inspection noticed the breeder has put the wrong sized closed ring on and its too tight... his foot is now swollen.. I have managed to shimmy it up his leg a bit and he is able to walk and close his foot now but I w...

dan4nas

yep he is gorgeous! I cant seem to stop checking out the beautiful patterns in his wings. Today the grey seems to be gone anyhow... :/

dan4nas

Hopefully it worked.. can you tell me why echo is getting grey through his wings? No tinge of any colour its just grey. He is very spangled or pearled.

dan4nas

Ok I have downloaded it and upload pics.. still dont know how to put photos on here from there...

dan4nas

Thanks shey

I will do from now, Thankyou for your help getting them all up.
No new photos of dam... have requested them but nothing as yet.
Echos "green" areas are not longer green. All aqua now, apart from body and head which is a baby blue. Loving him!

dan4nas

Huge difference!! I can finally relax knowing what colour my bubba is.. wow the anxiety and excitement waiting to find out

I will definately keep the photos coming. So there is obviously no way of knowing sex unless dna'd?

dan4nas

Sorry first photo didnt show up at first. Thats right. Top photo is the other baby. Rest of photos is my baby

dan4nas

No no. Thats my baby. The second email with the single photo is the other baby

Is my bubba still looking turquoise blue?

dan4nas

Well updates... stumped!! I will get photos out in the natural light tomorrow.. more feathers... and more colours!! We have some more vibrant green only on the edges of the wings, Top of wings has a mixture of blue and new colour which is a very deep GORGEOUS blue. Around legs and abdomen is a baby ...

dan4nas

I am so excited to hear that! He is my first ringneck. (im sure my first of many to come as i am totally smitten with him)
More and more come out over the hours. So cannot wait to see him fully feathered

dan4nas

I will let him know what shots we are after. It wont be until Saturday when he sees the bird, she is with his in laws safe from the bushfires at the moment. He has said he will send photos through of the other bub too. Apparently no green feathers showing through as yet, just all baby blue/very ligh...

dan4nas

This is why he has no idea of her true colouring. She had at least three owners prior to him and no body is able to tell him her history. This was an experimental breeding between the pair.

dan4nas

He is getting some gorgeous colours!! I am guessing he will be much more blue looking than his mother though??? Those wing feathers are very blue, dam is very green in wings apart from flights.

dan4nas

New little feathers this morning, confusing me even more lol. Wings turning out to be blue, bright blue. flight feathers very vibrant green. tail is blue and under wings on the body is blue also. photos coming.

dan4nas

I'm very excited to see all these feathers come out to see if you were all right

dan4nas

Going off that photo she is much more like the bird on the left, however I would say her body is an even more vibrant green. flight feathers are the same... the tail, however, she has much darker blue feathers mixed in there. But definitely ALOT more like the bird on the left.

dan4nas

I am reading that DF turquoise is much greener in body than the turquoise blue? I can tell you that the dam is a very vibrant green. There is no blue tinge to her green areas, and in the blue areas, different shades of blue from very light to a navy blue.

dan4nas

LOL ok. well by saturday chick will probably give you the indication of his colour anyhow.

What would the other possibility be of the hen, just a normal green?

dan4nas

So your still set on her being turquoise blue?

dan4nas

Photos of my chick are all taken inside with a flash. Would it give a better perception of colour if I took him outside during the day and take a photo in natural light?

dan4nas

At the moment bush fires surrounding their property (lovely Australia) so birds have been moved to safety at their in laws. They will get photos on the next few days for me. Other baby has broken feathers, baby blue with a tint of green. So a very light aqua.

dan4nas

I will message my friend for a better shot of mum. They should get a better one now as no more babies in the box. I've only got a photo of other baby before pinning so I'll ask for another of bub. They are a deep aqua on the wings, more and more coming out over the day. On the tail I am getting baby...

dan4nas

beautiful

Thankyou shey for putting up the photos for me I really appreciate it.

dan4nas

Yes there are two babies. Only one with me though. I thought you were thinking the two photos were of two babies that's all. Well we have a bit of colour!! Two pins showing feathers through on wings and showing colour on tail. In normal light they look blue. Under a flash with the camera they are aq...

dan4nas

I only have one. Pictures are the same baby. I'm very excited to see what colour he will be

dan4nas

Thankyou

dan4nas

Well baby echo is now.3 weeks and 2 days old. And he looks like a pin cushion :) h is now walking around and making new noises several times a day. We love him dearly and cant wait to see what colour he will be. Anyway to tell this without the actual feather coming through or will I need to be a lit...

dan4nas

Through a friend of mine, I have experience with my cockatiels so was not at all scary.

Through another user on here (thanks again) we have discovered hen is actually a turquoise blue.

Chick is outstanding. Growing everyday, love him dearly

dan4nas

There's my beautiful baby!! Name is echo- I love this little guy like crazy!!

dan4nas

Way too exciting. He ( not really sure but don't like saying it) changes every feed, and it's so remarkable. But colour up already!!! Lol congrats on your babies

dan4nas

We each have one baby from the clutch. They are currently 2 weeks and 5 days old. We are so excited to see what colour we each get. Starting to pin now. I have sent a photo of my baby I took today to your email,

dan4nas

Sorry got excited. Thanks for letting me know babies colours

dan4nas

Oh wow!! If your suspicions are right what are we expecting the two chicks to possibly be? Mate is a blue.

dan4nas

Well hopefully you can tell me exactly what the hen is.

dan4nas

Thankyou for the quick reply. We are very eager to know what she is.

dan4nas

Can someone who is confident in their mutations give me an email to send a photo through. I am handrearing my new baby. His father is blue. Mother is "different" type of green and I and the breeder need help identifying her mutation, also to determine what our babies will be. Please help

Hello, my name is Danielle and Im very excited to have a chat with you all.
