Koichi and Chihiro

Benny and Joon

Thanks!

 

[naburu]

Also, do you think Benny is older than Joon? He has no baby bars, but Joon still has some...

 

[naburu]

lol
Birds! I should have known that!


Yeah, I figured Nev would know!
He's like a super-genious!

 

[naburu]

Thanks softie.

 

[naburu]

I know male and femal pretty well. But thanks Pippins mom!

 

[naburu]

Oh yes, I know they are both over a year old.

 

[naburu]

Erm.... Benny is yellow darlin'.

 

[naburu]

No, I'm telling you, these birds are over a year old. And how's benny blue...? *confused*

 

[naburu]

Okay, that's a bit confusing! Yellow bird, yet blue!

And I'm sure they're both AT LEAST a year old now. Probably closer to 18 months.

 

[naburu]

I got them from a lady who bought them at Christmas time from a pet store. She was told they were adults when she bought them. Which I would say puts them at atleast a year old.
If anything, they are definatley at least 10 months old, as it is now September and they were bought in December.

What mutation is little Chiyo and Trevor?

Chiyo

Trevor

Also, I know they're only 3 months old and trying to sex them that young, but can you take a guess at what I got? Looks to me like two males, but Trevor has a purpleish blue cere, and Chiyo's is Pink. So is it possible that Chiyo is female? Because her chirping and squaking is softer than Trevor's huskier chirps.

AND! Is it normal for these spots on Trevor's beak?

 

[naburu]

A couple people have reassured me his spots are normal. Glad to hear it some more! lol

 

[naburu]

Yes, nev, I beliee I do have other pics... *looks*

Here's the best "back" picture I can find.

Here's a front image,it's a little blurry though.

 

[naburu]

Hmmm.... It might be the flash, but the first pic I posted had no flash.
It was taken in the sun.

 

[naburu]

Their tails are black and yellow.

 

[naburu]

Kiochi is a spangle cobalt
Chihiro is a type 1 yellow face grey
Benny is a type 2 yellow face recessive pied sky blue
Joon is an opaline cinnamon sky blue

Benny looks like an adult but, because of his mutation, he won't develop iris rings to help us guess his age. Joon appears to be about 3 or 4 months old

Sorry to bring up and old thread, but he DOES have iris rings. What does this mean...?

 

[naburu]

Okay, so what is the difference from a dominate, recessive, and double factor?
