Posted April 5, 200619 yr A spangle and a double factor spangle??? picture please if possible!! Thanks
April 5, 200619 yr Here is a skyblue spangle. Normal wing feathers have the black markings inside the shape of the feather where by the spangle have it on the outside edge of the feather. A double factor spangle looks like an albino except with black eyes. Double Factor Spangles Spots - None Body Colour - Full colour Markings - to be absent Eyes - Black with Iris ring Cheek Patches - Silvery White Tail Quil - neutral Tail - Approaching Body Colour Primaries - Approaching Body Colour
April 5, 200619 yr Single factor spangle is where they have the thin markings one the edge of the wings. A Double factor spangle looks like Luntino or Albinos without the red eyes. I can only show you a SF spangle: Edited for a different picture the first oen was very fuzzy. Edited April 5, 200619 yr by Nerwen
April 5, 200619 yr According to the website there is a way to tell the difference Genetically double-factor spangles are all yellow or all white (depending on base color). You can tell a budgie is double-factor spangle because its irises lighten normally with age. Comparatively, lutinos/albinos have red eyes and dark-eyed clears have dark plum eyes throughout their lives. http://www.geocities.com/budgie-place/p_colors.html#spangle Is that correct Nerwen or Daz?
April 6, 200619 yr But when they are babies....they dont have an iris ring...sooooo You cant tell difference!.....What is plum...isnt that purpleish? So....you have to get a good close up to make sure then? Does anyone have pis for us?.... Kirby :hap:
April 6, 200619 yr The two are different verieties. I read the question ot mean the look the same as each other. But they arn't the same thing. Is that correct Nerwen or Daz? Makes sence to me, the DEC has recessive pied genes and they have the plum coloured eyes. What is plum...isnt that purpleish? Yep a purleish /red.
April 6, 200619 yr So my Saffron must be a double factor spangle, because she is all yellow with no markings, but she has iris rings and black eyes.
