hi i was just wandering how much i should expect to pay for a pair of violets,they are bonded and dna sexed and closed rung..thanks

It would depend on if they have ever breed and had/raised babies there is a big difference between bonding and being paired with the ability to raise babies.

I would think between $1200 to $1800 as all the babies they do produce would be double factor violets.

Also find out how old they are.

Thanks Glenn

I assume they are violet blue and not violet greens.

Breeding results if both are single factor violet blues would be 25% blue, 50% sf violet blue & 25% df violet blue. Then if cock bird split to sex linked mutation ie cinnamon, lutino, pallid (lacewing)you could get anything.

Hopes this helps out a bit.

cool thanks..theyre only a yr old so they havent bred yet,not sure of parentage either,thanks for the replies

In NSW 2010 Violet Blues are selling for the same price as last year around $450 to $600. I would say if they are 2009 birds and will more than likely breed next year then around $1500 would be about right. Last year 2008 Violet Blues were going for about $1000. Find out about the parents. You dont want the Cock bird split to Ino as that can mask Violet.

Rod, what price do you think for DF Violet blue 2009 poss split lacewing cock.

Well a 2010 double factor would be from $800 to $1000 so a year older would probabley add a few hundred dollars. I did see one at a bird sale that was a 2010 one for $600 last week but it wasnt a very nice looking bird.
