Posted January 11, 200916 yr okay i really know what I will get but if there is any hope for me. I am breeding pepper and kissy pepper is an olive green budgie just like the ones they have in the wild and kissy is a bright green 'wild' coloured one. I am going to get all greens if I get any aren't I. and how do you get rid of greens!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Edited January 19, 200916 yr by maesie
January 11, 200916 yr They will all be green. Green is dominant and unless a bird is split for blue (had a blue parent) then their chicks will always be green. Green to green = green If you want blue you need to buy some blues and breed with them .
January 11, 200916 yr There is a small chance that you will get blues out of that pair. But to reliably get blues, you need to buy some.
January 11, 200916 yr pepper is an olive green budgie just like the ones they have in the wild and kissy is a bright green 'wild' coloured one. There arent any olive green wild budgies :hi:
January 11, 200916 yr Was going to say that Kaz you beat me to it :hi: chances are you will get all greens or yellows - Unless both parents are split to blue or Ino
January 19, 200916 yr Author okay They are brother and sister so their parents were yellowie mother aqua father.
January 19, 200916 yr I wouldn't really want to breed brother and sister together. Budgies as a rule are quite fairly inbred. By further inbreeding them you are more likely to get problems and undesirable mutations appearing. Genetically it is not good for the babies. Edited January 19, 200916 yr by Sailorwolf
January 20, 200916 yr so split the pair? Please tell me why you are seeing a brother and sister as a breeding pair ? Why isnt it something you think is wrong and why do you need to ask about splitting a brother sister ? Even line breeding experienced show breeders dont usually breed brother to sister.
