The cock bird is cobalt and the hen also

Thanks Kev,

Can any body post a pic showing the cobalt and violet together in one picture so that i can see the difference??

thanks Johan

Neeraj, you mention that they are from South Africa, so my guess would be cobalts. They are very plentiful over here. If you get very lucky, it might be violet. I see thanks for that information Johan, so are the violets very rare in south africa, how much do you estimate a violet pair will be in s...

Those are violets or cobalts. Unfortunately, narrowing it down from there becomes very hard when working with photos only. Thank you Johan, for the reply!! Can anyone apply those color filters you apply on the pictures and check if they are any different, i have seen in some posts they applied the ...

I got this bird without the ring so cannot tell the age i thought it was a female so paired it with a male, is it a young male?? i have got some pictures of it in march when i first got it and also in April after one month??

here is another picture with some other birds including a blue cleartail bird as well and you can see there is a difference with the normal blue, these are from South Africa, I am sure they are not normal blues but i dont know whether violet or cobalt?? So any more suggestions, If i breed them what ...

I am planning to buy this pair ,so just wanted to confirm first what color they were, are they violets or some other color, these are the only picture i have of them

Hi,

I am not very good at genetics but from what you have said, i think the cock is also split blue which explains the grey and the blue and the light color one is a female cinnamon i think??

thanks

There is a difference between Ch Fallow Blue or a Ch fallow split blue or a Blue clearheaded fallow and the same with the Cleartail. I would not recommend putting this two different mutation together. Grey is greygreen blue so you are going to end up with greygreen splits and green splits. Regards ...

Hi i am new to this forum, From Maldives.

I would like to know what i will get if i pair a CH fallow male and Clear tail grey female,

I have these birds setup now but there is no action yet so just wandering

thanks
