First is this a hen or a cock. The cere was bright blue but has developed a brown tinge now

 

 

I call him/her Mo, can you guess why

 

 

New pairs:

 

 

 

 

 

Oops whered they come from :rip:

One of my males has recently gone like that, bit dry and browny but its peeling off now. He likes to get up close and personal when I go in the aviary so easy to notice!!

Love your Dom pied and rec pied nice colours. Others looking good too

So you think male then? Sigh, I was hoping I had been wring and it was a hen, I wanted to put it with the big grey guy. Ah well, I'll have to have a think about a nice hen for it then.

 

The pieds paired up in the aviaryand he wasn't my choice for her but they looked so cute together

That has happened to Merlin too I think male too.

 

I love this pair, very interested to see the outcomes

You have some beautiful pairs together, cannot wait to see the outcomes. i think the pieds are very pretty.

I gave them both a bikini wax so fingers crossed Elly :rip:

 

Is it just me or do the show types always look angry

 

Although he did show alot of interest in the hen in the next cage so I think I might have to move them into a different breeding cage with less distractions

I agree the longer feathers of the eyes gives them the grumpy look, Merlin has it too vs the bright and perky look like the pet type.

I agree the first bird is a male.

Your pairs look great!! I hope they all work out

Aright well I'll do a switch and pick out a different mate for that one. Limitted in my choices for that one though so I might have to wait a bit.

 

 

I am taking all their babies! I know where you live!

Looks like you got yourself a fluke tufted bird

No, I bought him as a tufted. I want to put him with a really big hen as he is very tiny.

First this is a out of condition cock. There cere goes a blue brown when they are losing it.

 

 

He almost looks like a tufted bird. Or his just having a bad hair day!

 

 

New pairs, One dominate pied on the right one recessive on the left

 

 

 

I really hope you can get some thing out of these two!

It would be interesting!

 

 

 

He is a tufted TB, I thought he was cute

 

I hope I get something out of them too TB, if they don't start showing some interest in each other soon though (instead of completely ignoring each other!) I might be nudging you for AI advice
