What kind of ringneck is this?

[christi78]

Can someone please tell me what kind of mutation my new ringneck is? We are in Texas and Juicy is 3 months old.

[dog_glenn123]

It could be a Turquoise(Parblue) Pallid cinnimon = cinnimon pastel lacewing, depend on where your from or.

turquoise(parblue) violet(sf) pallid cinnamon = pastel lavender lacewing.

Hard to tell from the back possible side view would be better.

Either way very nice ringneck really like the colour

dog_glenn123 are u located in southern California?

[dog_glenn123]

Why do you ask?

[christi78]

Thanks you dog_glenn123

[dog_glenn123]

No worries still hard to tell what type of colour mutation but it is turquoise(patel) and lacewing and cinnimon just not sure if its green or blue or violet series hopefully one of the experts can help.

[pinkdevil]

What a sweet looking bird....and love the colour, whatever it is.

Here are some side shots, thanks again for all your help

Hi,
I am pretty good at my mutations but not too good. If it was a Turquoise(Parblue) Pallid cinnimon, the head of the ringneck would be pale yellow. you bird has a white head and green wings which dont match, the olny way that this in possible is if it was a bronze fallow cinnamon turquiose blue. But i doubt thats what you have as they are rare and hard to breed. This is a tough one.

[dog_glenn123]

There better shots greenbean is right i mist 1 part of the gen calc, but i have changed my mind anyway.

Possibly as follows turquoise(parblue)Blue violet(sf) pallid cinnamon clearhead_fallow cleartail
= cinnimon pastel violet clearhead cleartail or
= cinnimon pastel blue clearhead cleartail

It has turquoise marking on its wings = (pastel), it is very light in colour (cinnimon), it has a WH & WT (clearhead cleartail), its just hard to tell if it more blue or violet.

What where the parents of the bird maybe that could help more with gen calc?
Also what country are you in?

Thanks Glenn

Thank you so much for your thoughts Here are a few more pictures that may help. He does have a pale yellow head and we live in the U.S. - Texas. We ran across this beautiful ringneck at our pet store, we got our first ringneck from a local breeder. We're trying to track down the breeder of Juicy, he's local but not sure about the parents yet.

[dog_glenn123]

OK since he as a pale yellow head (in the photo's it looks white).
He/she is a Turquoise(Parblue)blue Pallid (cinnimon?)
Pastel blue lacewing possibly cinnimon as it is very light colour.

If you can find out what it mum and dad are including what they are split too it would help.
I have one the same which is a female not cinnomon though and she is double factor pastel which makes her a bit darker. Very beautiful birds. The below link is to mine and she has a really yellow head now and alot darker since she has had a few molts. Does yours look similar.

ThanKS gLENN

ok I worked it out, dog glenn was close but it is a Turquoise(Parblue)blue Pallid DF (double factor) I only just relised that I have 1 of my own.

[thebends2000]

You bird appears to be an Alexanderine.......they are very similar, but not the same. ; )

[3tiels&aringneck]

I thought the Alexadrine had a red feather on the wing though.

[thebends2000]

True about the red on wings. Perhaps the colour mutation has altered that. Because the size of the beak (and even size of the bird) are more like an Alexanderine than a ring neck.

[julie]

Thats a indian ringneck not an alexandrian. Alexs are way bigger.

[Lilly]

It's an IRN... I agree, too small for an Alex plus it's beak would be much bigger.

Beautiful colour I must say!
