The Genetic Calculator

Post by AussieParrots »

Has anyone ever found a site that helps decode the genetic calculator for the layperson?

Some are pretty obvious - grey, violet, blue, cinnamon, cleartail etc...

But what is Dark - is that a Normal green? What is edge dilution (white areas on wings?) NSLino? Dilute - is that just any pale colour such as lutino? What is opaline is that albino or do they come under dilute? What is ino? I know pallid = lacewing

It's a handy little tool, but it stumps me on the details! :oops:

Hi AussieParrots;

To know what do mutations look like and type of inheritance:

Wonderful birds in other webs from people in this forum:
madas (http://www.halsbandsittichmutationen.de), mcw (http://www.mcw-indianringnecks.com.au) , and many others.

To workout how the genetic calculator works: look at old posts of Jay using the search function. It is easier if you have some basic knowledge of genetics. Some interesting posts:
