Saddleback - what mutation is it?
I have bought the new book from Deon (did not arrive yet) so i don't know what Deon says about them.
Meanwhile, I think and i know that by saying this, "some" will not be all too happy but someone's gotta say it.
To me phenotype Saddleback does not look anything more then the IndigoBlue & Harlequin combo.
Opinions?
Perhaps we should breed the pair mentioned above to prove theory right or wrong.
or, look at offspring bred from saddleback and compare to indigo birds.

nothing more than a dominant pied with dominant edge, oh and lets not forget the turquoise to create the saddle effect on the back.
