Green Pied Peach-face Love Bird
Sir Edmond Hilliary. Hatched and hand raised in April of 1986 he is still a wonderful pet.
Shy, the top bird, is an American Cinnamon hen. Her mate is a poor specimen of an
Orange-face, but he is a great parent.
Banana
Creame is a medium blue splitcinnamino. He is a sibling to the bird right below,
Sorbet.
This 6 week old cremino hen displays the green iridescence on her
rump. This is seen in good lighting but often hard to capture with a camera. A
cremino is a display of the sex-linked "ino" gene and the recessive "Dutch
blue" gene.
Sorbet is a medium splitcinnamino/blue. The creamino hen on the left is his
daughter. Sorbet is a great father and still remains a pet.
Single Factored Violet Whiteface Peach-face cock. Note that the violet only gives this
bird a blue hue. Under different lighting the bird's violet is much more evident.
All of these babies are medium as they each contain one dark factor from their father a
dark whiteface blue peach-face love bird also known as a slate whiteface. The mother was a
single factored violet seagreen. All of the babies are variations of seagreen except for
the one on the far right. This bird is a medium single factored violet whiteface blue.
Prince is a Double Factored Whiteface Violet hen. She was sold to me with the
"guess" that she was a he. Any birds that will be placed in a breeding situation
are DNA sexed before pairing. She laid eggs before I got around to sending in a blood
sample.
Jo is a dark whiteface also called a whiteface slate.
