Hi,

 

I have 2 lutino lacewings and 1 albino lacewing all being females. I am wanting to continue breeding the lacewings but I don't know which males I need to continue breeding this gene.

 

I have only bred the 2 lutinos and not the albino yet because of age. I paired one of the lacewings with a male split to cinnamon and got a couple of cinnamons from them. I also paired the other with a split lutino male, they only had one baby and the baby turned out a normal blue.

 

I am going to a sale this weekend and will be purchasing a couple of males for them.

 

I also have 2 beautiful grey wings and I am also wondering what colors would be best to pair them with to get more grey wings.

 

Thanks

Hi Budgie lover any males you bred from your lacewings will be split for lacewing and you can put them with your other lacewing hens when they are old enough. Otherwise when you look to purchase one ask the breeder whether they have any split lacewings as that would be your best pairing or to a lacewing male if you can get one.

The same goes for your greywings.

Cheers Jenny

Thanks Hilly,

 

The 2 lutino lacewings i have at the moment were bred from the same dad but different mother. Would I be able to breed 1 of the lacewings sons which is a cinnamon with the other lutino lace wing, or would that be to closely related?

Would that mean that the normal blue budgie is also split lacewing? and could that male be bred with the other lutino lace wings daughter which is also cinnamon?

 

Can females be split to grey wing?

The father of the 2 lutino lacewings is also a grey wing, he is also the father of the albino lace wing.

 

Thanks
