Same with violet and grey, you'd need one parent that colour or carrying the gene for that colour. Link to comment

They are a combination of Yellowface type II,Opaline, and Whitewing. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> OHH I have the Yf2 and the opaline so I should get a whitewing for Marine's son and I just may get an Rainbow Link to comment

Guest Javi_F.C. Posted September 6, 2005 Share Posted September 6, 2005 If you wanna get rainbows, you can breed with, for example: . Male: blue (sky, cobalt, mauve or violet) opaline clearwing x Female: blue dilute opaline yellow face. This is a fast way. But the best way to get very good birds (good tipe, and size), is breeding with good normals splits for clearwing. For example, one male opaline blue split for clearwing x female clearwing or split of clearwing and yellow face. Link to comment

Bea is right about the Violet and Grey being that colour. They are dominant genes and can not carry them as split. A Violet or grey bird would show them in one way or another. To get them you need a parent of that colour.. Albino is recessive so blue or geen budgies can carry it. A good way is to get a blue male split for albino and mate him with a blue hen. Rainbows: Combination of yellowface type 2, opaline and whitewing.. Link to comment
