The 2 spangles, did you say father and son, if that's the case and the mother is normal and the father is split for cinnamon you have 25% chance of the son being split also. I think that's right.

Guest ~libby~ Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 yeah positive thats the same bub only got 3 in pin stages atm the mothers a light green opaline and if one of those two spangles are the father then it could be cinnamon but i have no idea what it is... leaving this one to the experts:) Link to comment

Any body colour showing up near the tail yet libby? Link to comment

But from 2 light greens you shoud only get Lt greens. Link to comment

Guest ~libby~ Posted August 18, 2007 Share Posted August 18, 2007 is yf2 mauve spangle an option because his belly is starting to feather up a weird colour? Link to comment
Guest ~libby~ Posted August 19, 2007 Share Posted August 19, 2007 hey i have another possible father because the baby is starting to look blue series to me... should the mother be split for blue and this is the father this would be a yf2 mauve spangle or yf2 cobalt spangle... i know you all say grey green but i only have two greys... a normal grey male and a grey green normal female... and since this ones mother is an opaline it isnt really a possibilty of the greys... tell me what ya reckon here's a picture of the bubs belly and possible father Link to comment

It would be easy for her to be split for blue. The bub is either a cobalt or mauve. Looks slightly mauve to me. Bea was right with the pale wings in the end :hap: Well done. Link to comment

But I thoughtr you said you only had 2 possiable spangles.. :hap: Then you pull another one from your hat.. :(Laughing out loud): Well is that all your spangles then? I know everyone has only looked at fathers a hen could have layed in the nest you just never know when you colony breed.. She is a cutie.. At least the last spangle has more of a chance to being the dad than the other 2. Link to comment
Guest ~libby~ Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 because i was told it was green i had only two possible fathers... as for yf spangle i have that one which it looks similar to or a yf2 cobalt opaline spangle... but the bubba woulda been opaline because both parents are... aside from that the other spangles are female... so i guess we've worked it out:) Link to comment

Any way here or she is a very cute baby, Like to see some pics when he leaves the nest. Oh yeh like the name too Link to comment
Guest ~libby~ Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 the other female spangles... are a sky blue opaline spangle and a yf2 mauve opaline spangle but neither are in breeding condition and both are very small grumpy birds:) pretty sure we've pinned it's parents down now:) thanks splat we tought the name was suitable too:) suits him very cute:P thankyou for all your help guys:) learning more and more everyday Link to comment
